Paris Brightledge
Chicago
Paris Brightledge Is House Music. There at the beginning, from the gritty dark streets and the underground scene of Chicago, to the frenetic east coast. Appearing on legendary stages from London's Palladium and Paris' Real Tone Club to the Cheetah Club, Zanzibar, Studio 54, and The Limelight. Paris Brightledge’s haunting and melodic voice is known the world over. It’s not hard for him to remain salient with classics old and modern. From the roots of house music with “It’s Alright” to the inflexible groove, “Paris Dub 1” and more recently "Deep In My Soul" and "When I Die". He possesses a perplexing ability to move underground while maintaining a progressive legendary status. This dark horse has appeared on stages throughout the Western Hemisphere. With recent mentions in, Pitchfork, Mix Mag, Rolling Stone, DJ Mag, Crack Magazine, Fact Mag, 5 Magazine, and many more, we expect Paris’s pace to continue. He vows to remain committed to a vinyl only release format, further embedding his status in the bowels of a netherworld known to only a fragmented few who dare explore. Paris has appeared besides and worked with the legendary likes of Joe Smooth, Frankie Knuckles, Marshall Jefferson, Fast Eddie, Peter Black, Rocky Jones, Ron Hardy, Mike Dunn, K’Alexi, Darryl Pandy, Curtis McClain, Farley JackMaster Funk, Byron Stingily, Paranoid London, Rydim, Marlon Hoffstadt, and more recently Del 30, George Smeddles Ten City and Groove Armada, along with most anyone from the early days of Chicago constructed, birthed, and pioneered House Music. With such a storied past we can only hope for nothing less than a continuation.
