In 1981, Marc LELANGUE "makes a voyage to the Capital", and discovers blues through a record of Big Bill BRONZY of which he memorizes the songs. He meets Luther TUCKER, cousin of Robert LOCKWOOD Junior and guitarist during legendary sessions of Little WALTER, Sonny Boy WILLIAMSON or John Lee HOOKER. TUCKER happens to live nearby and invites him several times to eat, play cards, have a drink, to sing the rural blues that he is practicing.
Marc LELANGUE is still faithful to blues singing, but has recently created a parallel repertoire, of songs that he wrote in French. He is also known for his humorous presence during his live appearances.
