Twenty two years after their inception, CHARGE 69, the revered French punk rock band are set to release a fabulous and fascinating new "Best Of" record, featuring 10 punk luminaries singing the band's own songs, not in French, as per the originals, but in English.
This really is a "Best Of" collection with a difference, fully deserving of its title: Much More Than Music.
The project will be completed in two phases, with volume two planned for later this year.
Volume one features the vocal talents of the following:
TV SMITH (The Adverts) / MATT DANGERFIELD (The Boys) / BEKI BONDAGE (Vice Squad) /
COLIN (GBH) / GREG (Outcasts) / CAMPINO (Die Toten Hosen) / CHARLIE HARPER (U.K. Subs) /
MICKY FITZ (The Business) / ROGER MIRET (Agnostic Front) / ARTURO BASSICK (The Lurkers / 999)
Collaborating with the musicians that influenced CHARGE so much over the years, has resulted an album beyond their wildest dreams. Caps, founding member and bass player: "Hearing our songs sung in English by these guys has been a revelation for us, it’s like someone gave us the keys to the candy shop, Much More Than Music, the dream come true – and a concept never done before".

My musical journey started as I was 5 years old. My father, a physician with a big heart for music was having another "Jam session" in our basement. I was peeking through the door and singing along. After a while my father heard me and invited me in. I stayed there for the entire session, singing along and enjoying myself. It became my biggest passion and with my father's guidance, I started improving my vocal skills.
In 1984, I moved to Bangalore, India and attended a boarding school. I soon joined a gospel choir of a little chapel at the school. Surrounded by the authentic Indian music, I was inspired by different styles of music and started writing my own songs. With the age of 16, I moved to Germany where I continued my studies and started working on numerous musical projects as a composer and vocalist.
My interest in various styles of music led me to work with composers and musicians of different musical backgrounds. My appreciation for Classic, Traditionals, Pop, RnB,Hip hop, Country, Jazz, Blues, Gospel and Modern electronic music has played a significant role in developing my music style.
I started working with well respected and very successful musicians, composers and sound-engineers:
D.Dirks (The Scorpions), Tony Hendrik (Haddaway), Jon Caffery (Die Toten Hosen)
