Swiss born French musician Félix Rabin is a singer-songwriter-guitar talent, who blends rock, blues, European soul-pop, some funk (and even a touch of prog), to extremely fine effect, which could be described with the terms “pop-rock” and “crossover blues“.
First picking up a guitar at the age of 15, the young six-string talent started a few years later to play around Switzerland & France and, rather impressively, appearing and playing at the prestigious Montreux Jazz Festival– not once, but on several occasions.
With such encouragement, Félix took his music to the UK, a territory that had always attracted him. His talent moved him step by step to larger stages and the attention of classic rock legends Wishbone Ash, who brought him on board as support on their 50th Anniversary Tour of the UK.
In 2019, Félix headed for the United States, dipping his toes in that country’s musical culture and musical genres; he recorded material in Los Angeles. The results of those recording sessions became his first official EP, ‘Pogboy’.
Before spring 2020, Félix returned to the UK and won the Best Act award at the Giants of Rock Festival. He then spent a month on the road travelling through ten European and UK countries as support to American roots blues artist Samantha Fish.
The recent singles, forthcoming EP ‘Blues Days’ and upcoming debut album fully define who Félix Rabin is as a songwriter, singer, and melodically atmospheric player – one with a European sound, but with British rock & blues sensibilities.
Pogboy. Rockboy. Popboy.
All apply, but each is but a facet of Félix Rabin, an artist who has been on a ten-year musical journey, slowly but assuredly progressing from bluesier beginnings to the tasteful playing of the highly accomplished, crossover artist he now is. And he’s just getting started.
