He Bellamy Brothers Est Un Duo Américain Formé Par Les Frères Bellamy Bros - Darby he Bellamy Brothers est un duo américain formé par les frères David Milton Bellamy, né le 16 septembre 1950 et Homer Howard Bellamy, né le 2 février 1946, originaires de Darby, T en Floride, aux États-Unis. Le duo a connu de nombreux succès dans les années 1970 et 1980. À ce jour, ils ont produit plus de cinquante albums, principalement chez Curb Records. David et Howard Bellamy furent dès leur plus jeune âge imprégnés par la musique country que jouait leur père Homer. Ils grandissent dans un ranch de 1100 hectares; leur père Homer, agriculteur et éleveur, joue de la musique country pour son loisir, principalement des airs liés à la Square Dance et au Western Swing. Ils sont entourés par l'amour de leur père, de la musique country et des harmonies et rythmes des jamaïcains travaillant dans les orangeraies de la famille. Avec leur père Homer en 1956 La combinaison de ces influences musicales marque leur enfance, ainsi que le rock n' roll d'Elvis Presley, Ricky Nelson, Buddy Holly et The Everly Brothers y compris la musique Calypso des îles des Caraïbes voisines. Toutes ces sonorités ont contribué à façonner la signature sonore unique des Bellamy Brothers. L’autre partie de la famille est la mère ‘’Frances Bellamy’’ et une sœur qui deviendra chanteuse. La famille en 1950 ‘’Notre ranch appartient à notre famille depuis 1870’’, a déclaré Howard. ‘’Nous avons travaillé très dur sur le ranch, mais père a toujours favorisé les moments de loisir. Il était important pour lui de lier les deux activités ‘’travail et musique’’. Papa était un musicien, pas professionnel, mais chaque week-end nous avons eu de la musique dans notre maison. Il était pour nous une référence et représentait un mode de vie’’. Howard Les frères rejoignent un groupe de Western Swing, alors que leur sœur se produit en tant que chanteuse, plutôt dans le genre Rock'n'roll. David et Howard n’ont jamais reçu de formation musicale, mais ils ont appris seuls à jouer de la guitare, de la mandoline et du banjo. De plus, David a appris l'accordéon, le violon, l'orgue et le piano. The Bellamy Brothers produisent leur musique, celle des Boys de Floride, sans se soucier des tendances et modes dites ‘’New Country Music de Nashville’’. Ils sont proches de leur public et c’est cela l’essentiel pour eux. Imprégnés dans leur adolescence par La Pop et le Rock, ils prennent dans leur vingtième année la voie de la Country Music grâce à George Jones et Merle Haggard. Leur première scène se fait en 1968, en jouant un spectacle gratuit avec leur père au ‘’Rattlesnake Roundup’’ à San Antonio en Floride. Le père joue du Dobro et du violon, Howard de la guitare rythmique et David de l’accordéon. https://youtu.be/pCEPOYvH9X8 Peu de temps après, les frères déménagent à Atlanta, en Georgie et forment un groupe appelé ‘’Jéricho’’. Toutefois, cette expérience ne leur convenant pas, ils reviennent en Floride dans le ranch familial. David Bellamy écrit "Spiders and Snakes" ; cette chanson enregistrée par Jim Stafford, est devenue un succès, se vendant à près de trois millions d'exemplaires permettant ainsi aux deux frères de déménager à Los Angeles en Californie, grâce à l’argent gagné. Howard devient alors ‘’Road Manager’’ pour Jim Stafford. Jim Stafford Au milieu de la décennie 1970, ils se produisent en Allemagne et plus généralement en Europe, dans les pays Scandinaves, en Suisse sur le festival Interlaken ‘’Trucker & Country’’. 1976 est l’année de la chanson ‘’Let Your Love Flow’’ qui atteint le n°1 sur le Billboard Hot 100; ce qui leur permet de commencer une carrière internationale. Une chanson reprise par Joe Dassin sous le titre ‘’ Les aventuriers ‘’. La décennie 1980 verra le duo au plus haut des palmarès du Billboard Country Songs avec la particularité d’ une musique Country à laquelle vient s’ajouter des touches de Rock, Reggae et même du Rap. Leurs chansons se classent aux premières places dans le Billboard avec “If I Said You Had A Beautiful Body Would You Hold It Against Me,” “Do You Love As Good As You Look,” “Redneck Girl” et “Too Much Is Not Enough.” Leur style devient un mélange de: Contemporary Country, Country-Pop, Contemporary Pop/Rock, Urban Cowboy, Country-Rock. En 1977, leur deuxième album ‘’Plain & Fancy’’ est un grand succès en Suède et en Norvège, mais il n'a pas beaucoup d'impact en Amérique. Par contre l’album suivant "Slippin' Away", dans lequel ils se rapprochent de la Country Music, leur permet de se hisser à la 20 ème place du Billboard Country Songs. Le duo signe chez Curb Records en 1975. Le single "Nothin' Heavy" est un échec; toutefois, à la suggestion de Dennis St. John, le batteur de Neil Diamond, les frères enregistrent le single "Let Your Love Flow" écrit par Larry Williams. Sortie en 1976 cette chanson devient n°1 aux États-Unis dans les Charts Pop. Il faudra attendre 1979 et la sortie de "If I Said You Had a Beautiful Body Would You Hold It Against Me", pour que le groupe connaisse son premier succès country, au titre ambigu. Le duo continue d’enchaîner les succès tels que "Redneck Girl", "Santa Fe", "Old Hippie" ou "Kids of the Baby Boom". A travers le magazine Billboard, les Bellamy Brothers sont désignés comme meilleur duo en Country Music; ils se retrouvent plusieurs fois nommés par l'Academy of Country Music et la Country Music Association. En 1991, The Bellamy Brothers signent chez Atlantic Records pour un album avant de s'autoproduire, ce qui est une première dans l'histoire de la musique country. Malgré leurs efforts, ils n'arrivent pas à atteindre la position de leurs anciens succès. En 1999, ils signent chez Blue Hat Records pour leur album ‘’Lonely Planet’’. En 2005, les frères Bellamy retournent chez Curb Records pour enregistrer ‘’Angels & Outlaws’’ Volume 1; un album de compilations regroupant des ré-enregistrements de vieux succès en duo avec d'autres artistes, dont Dolly Parton, George Jones, Alan Jackson, Tanya Tucker, et les Montgomery Gentry. Discographie (partielle) David a épousé Susan Bond le 20 Mars 1993. Dans les années 1990, les fils de David, Noah et Jesse, font leur apparition sur la scène musicale. En 1998, ils forment un groupe appelé Burning Sky; ils sortent le single "It Weeps In My Heart". Ils jouent à présent sous le nom ‘’Noah & Jesse’’. 2015, The Bellamy Brothers célèbrent le 40e anniversaire de leur carrière musicale; ils aspirent à divertir une autre génération d'auditeurs, continuent encore à travailler et faire de la musique dans le ranch qui abrite leurs familles. Le Ranch regroupe leurs bureaux, un studio d’enregistrement et à deux pas, les bovins. ‘’Nous avons les mêmes objectifs communs, la plupart de tous nos travaux sont soit dans le domaine de la musique, soit dans les travaux liés au ranch’’ raconte Howard. Depuis plus de 40 ans, les Bellamy Brothers sont porteurs d’une approche cohérente dans la musique Country, avec des chansons sincères, honnêtes, qui se connectent avec des millions d'auditeurs dans le monde entier. ‘’Bien sûr, c'est ce que nous sommes, nous faisons une grande gamme de choses et tout cela nous paraît normal; nous sommes fiers de ce que nous avons fait, mais nous sommes toujours ravis de savoir où nous allons’’ dit Howard. Les Bellamy Brothers ont eu plus de 50 albums publiés au fil des ans et de nombreux singles dans les Charts. .
