Awek are among the best blues France has to offer! The new 2019 album comes in a double pack and tells the story of the band on the second CD on 14 rare songs, starting with their first studio recording in 1995!

These guys do not imitate anyone any more than they pretend to feel this music: they sweat it with the same naturalness and legitimacy as any other international blues first-league artist, to which they belong of right. From then on, the list of guests who came to join them seems even more obvious: besides Rusty Zinn, Drew Davies and Bob Welsh, their host and producer Kid Andersen also gives himself his featuring. For it is indeed at this San Diego wizard, in his studios Greaseland, that AWEK has just recorded his new album. Just like Tommy Castro, the Nightcats and Rockin 'Johnny before, yes. More than ever swing and class, the aerobatic rhythm that lavish Joël Ferron and Olivier Trebel unrolls the track of ad hoc takeoff for the two soloists, Bernard Sellam and Stéphane Bertolino (here at the top of their art in all circumstances). To better appreciate if necessary the extent of the path traveled since their debut, our friends offer as a bonus a full bonus of choice cuts from their concerts from 1995 to 2017. This double CD carries its title: Fiesta on all floors, and a damn classic moreover...!

Born in Cleveland, Ohio, June is a self-taught musician. He got his first paying gig at 17 after only playing for a year. Over the next few years June gigged in and around Cleveland with organist Eddie Baccus and with various funk, jazz and soul groups. In 1978 June was introduced to Robert Lockwood Jr. and Johnny Shines. Eddie Baccus suggested that Robert use June for an upcoming tour. Lockwood reluctantly agreed to hire an unproven drummer and, consequently, the band was fired after the first week because June insisted on playing funk grooves over blues. The club owner recognized talent however, and allowed the band to practice in a broom closet. Robert and Johnny taught June, in one day, five different shuffles to use in any blues. “That was start of my career”, says June. Robert and Johnny Shines became June’s second father’s and June’s musical relationship with Lockwood lasted nearly ten years. In 1980, June moved to New York and played pickups with jazz and funk bands doing the club circuit that included The Bitter End, Lonestar Café, and Freddies Café. In 1982, June returned to Cleveland. As a result of his relationship with Robert Lockwood, June shared the stage with BB King, James Cotton, Mighty Joe Young, Willie Dixon, and Albert Collins.

In 1987 June headed west to San Jose, California. Shortly thereafter, he was hired by Mark Hummel, a stint that lasted two years. He soon met Andy Santana and the West Coast Playboys and then, along with Andy and Mike Schermer, founded the Soul Drivers, a highly successful Santa Cruz based blues band. In 1991, The Soul Drivers became Angela Stehli’s backup band. June also worked as a side man for Miss Laverne Baker. In 1996 June was asked to join Little Charlie and the Nightcats and spent five years touring with that band. Throughout the next few years June played with various west coast based bands such as Terry Hanck and Mighty-Mike Schermer. In 2004 Charlie Musselwhite hired June and has been touring with him since.
