Chicago based singer Carlo Chapelle sings Any Other Fool as part of his debut recording Shades Of Blue. Carlo's soothing voice is perfectly suited for Dianne Warren ballad hitting the right notes of longing and regret. Shades Of Blue was recorded over three years in Chicago, Indiana and Manila and features an eclectic group of songs including several standards. Other hightlights of the the album include “God Bless the Child,” the Bergman classic “What are You Doing the Rest of Your Life”, arranged especially for Carlo by well known singer/composer/arranger, Beckie Menzie and an acapella version of “The Nearness of You”
Born in Manila, Carlo started his singing career in the church choir with THE group People, Precious and Few choir. The group toured the Philippines and was recorded by the record label, IVORY RECORDS. During recording of the album, “Ama Namin”, Carlo was asked to record for another independent LP entitled, "80's Mega Medley". It was a tribute cover album to the 80's pop hits as we were approaching 1990. Carlo’s solos were the Michael Jackson classic "Billie Jean” and the dance floor 80's hit "I Beg Your Pardon".
Moving to Chicago in 1991, Carlo has appeared at such clubs as Gentry, Cotton Club, Bailiwick Repertory Theater, Davenport’s, The Ramada Hotel, Petterino’s, while also appearing on a local cable show called “Pinoy TV”.
