Roger Chapman oder auch kurz 'Chappo' begann 1966 seine internationale Karriere als Frontmann der Band FAMILY. Roger ist einer der renommiertesten englischen Sänger und gilt zusammen mit seiner Band THE SHORTLIST als genialer Live Act. Chappo`s legendärer Auftritt im WDR - ROCKPALAST hat Ihn 1980 in ganz Europa berühmt gemacht, CHAPMANS Version des ROLLING STONES Songs "LETS SPEND THE NIGHT TOGETHER" stieg 1980 hoch in die deutschen Charts ein. 1981 folgte Roger`s grösster Hit: die Mike Oldfield Komposition SHADDOWS ON THE WALL. Das Album Rollin' & Tumblin, im März 2001 veröffentlicht - ein Highlight mit Roger´s einzigartig-genialen Stimme und seiner fantastischen Band `Shortlist´. Im April 2007 erschien von Roger Chapman das erste Studioalbum seit sieben Jahren, „ONE MORE TIME FOR PEACE“!

Vorschau Colos-Saal, Aschaffenburg:

Roger Chapman & The Shortlist

Er kann es nicht lassen – Chappo mit dem Rücktritt vom Rücktritt

Roger Chapman, dieser Bühnen-Berserker, gibt in seinen schweißtreibenden Shows alles, um sein Publikum glücklich zu machen.Der Mann mit dem Meckern in der Stimme hatte bereits eine internationale Karriere hinter sich – er war der Frontmann der britischen Band Family – als sein Album „Live In Hamburg“ und sein darauffolgender Auftritt beim 1980er WDR-Rockpalast den Startschuss zu einem neuen Abschnitt in seinem Künstlerdasein gaben. Mit seinen Versionen des Rolling Stones Hits „Let’s Spend The Night Together“ und der Mike Oldfield Komposition „Shadow On The Wall“ rannte Roger Chapman europaweit offene Türen ein. Als hätten die Menschen nur gewartet auf seine Urgewalt in einer Zeit zunehmend seelenloser Popmusik, wurde Chappo Garant für ausverkaufte Tourneen.Im jährlichen Turnus veröffentlichten Roger Chapman & The Shortlist fortan Alben. 2009 erschien ein außergewöhnliches Doppel-Album - Hide Go Seek. 28 Spuren von verloren gegangenen Schätzen hatte Chappo gesucht und gefunden. Nur acht der 28 Track waren bereits vorher in anderen Versionen veröffentlicht worden. Die aktuelle Live CD „Maybe the last time“ erschien vor einem Jahr.

Und nun: „Chappo tritt ab“ Teil zwei! Bereits im Dezember 2009 verabschiedete sich Roger Chapman von seinen Fans im Colos-Saal. Er trete jetzt in den Ruhestand. Pah! Als hätte man es geahnt, dass es dieser Rock’n’Roll Schwerarbeiter ohne sein Lebenselixier Bühne nicht aushält. Egal, was ihn treibt, freuen wir uns, dass dieser liebenswerte Künstler sich zu einer Ehrenrunde entschlossen hat!

Auf der Deutschlandtour im Februar 2013 werden Roger Chapman &The Shortlist (Geoffrey Whitehorn, Nicholas Payn, John Lingwood, Paul Hirsh) wieder das zeigen was sie am besten können - live spielen!
