Super-Soloist, André Pitre is slated as the next singing megastar
based on his sultry ensemble of beautifully performed ballads and heart-throbbing
hits. His authentic talent is evident through his disciplined
vocals, reminiscent of legendary soul and R&B. Pegged as the
“Southern Gentleman,” Pitre’s seductive sound,
down home charisma,
and passion for performing creates a intimate connection with his music that
lingers on.
Pitre just completed a successful national tour with David E. Talbert’s
hit stage play, Love in the Nick of Tyme, starring Morris Chestnut, Ellia English
of the Jamie Foxx show, and R & B recording artist, Avant. In the play Pitre
plays the prominent role of Harvey, the UPS man, who serenades his way into our
hearts and reveals the answer to the UPS tagline, “What Can Brown Do For
You?”
Pitre also performs all over L.A., from The Sunset Room to The Aqua
Lounge in Beverly Hills. Most recently he rocked the National Anthem
for the Lakers at
the L.A. Staples Center, as well as the NWBA Los Angeles Sparks, the Washington
Mystics, and at The Angel City Classic at the L.A. Coliseum.
Last year, Pitre was nominated as the NAACP Image Award’s Best Male Lead
in a Theatrical Play for his dynamic performance in Michael Ajakwe Jr’s
hit musical, Body Language.
To date, he’s made appearances on Houston’s Benson and Hedges Tour
with Phil Perry, Jeffrey Osborne, Najee, Morris Day and the Time, and has performed
with Frankie Beverly and Maze, John P. Kee, George Clinton and Aaron Hall, to
name a few. His television appearances include The Steve Harvey Show, Moesha,
The Parkers, and Eve. ‘The Southern Gentleman’ is also slated to
appear in Morris chestnut’s upcoming movie, Not Easily Broken.
In addition to his music, Pitre is also a pillar in the community. He has worked
with children in the inner cities of Houston, Beaumont, and Los Angeles for several
years. He has successfully spearheaded summer programs, basketball camps, and
after school activities serving as both mentor and volunteer to ensure that children,
especially young men, have a positive influence while teaching them sportsmanship
and the fundamentals of teamwork on and off the field.
Pitre, is currently in the studio working on his debut album, but in the meantime
... brace yourself for André.
