Bio
Manu Chevalier is a multi-instrumentalist, performer, songwriter and producer from
Marseille, France with a wealth of knowledge and love for all kinds of music. His latest
release, which features vocalist Lumina B, sits comfortably in the disco/pop/funk lane.
Titled “I’m Alright,” the track is designed to get people dancing but the lyrics tell a
deeper story.
The track “I’m Alright” went through some transformations in its creative process and
Manu is proud of the final result. He was a student at a songwriting academy in London
and naturally, was tasked with writing a song. Several mentors at this academy have
multiple accolades in the music world and they gave Manu direct feedback. However,
some changes had to be made before the song was officially released.
“Originally, the song sounded like ‘Levitating’ by Dua Lipa. So I made several changes
and adjustments, which was a multistep process.” he said.
While Manu does sing on the demo version of the song, he knew he wanted a female
vocalist on the final version and he came across Lumina B who loved the song. Her
vocals on the song enhance the uplifting atmosphere of the song and the multilayered
lyrics. .
Manu Chevalier plays formerly both tenor and alto sax as well as the keyboard. But
ironically, the saxophone heard on “I’m Alright” is a MIDI sax sounding keyboard that
Manu plays for artistic or ethical reasons.
Manu’s musical background includes jazz and bossa nova and he is no stranger to the
joy that comes from performing music live.
“I love communicating with the audience as I perform. I often left the stage and would
walk down the aisles, playing directly in front of the audience. I loved enjoying their
energy, dancing and happiness.” he said.
Manu’s experience with playing with music live enhanced his love for doing surprising
things with the audience. In addition to leaving the stage, he also enjoyed doing new
arrangements and versions of songs or adding his own solo parts to covers his band
was doing. With a musical ear that was trained from his older sisters showing him a
plethora of music growing up, he grew to have an appreciation for all genres from
multiple decades.
“From listening to all of these artists and genres, I began to form melodies in my own
head. At that age, I didn’t realize I was composing. I kept listening to more and more
artists and began to seek out artists on my own too.” he said.
Manu’s musical foundation led him to creating all kinds of tracks in his career ranging
from tracks like the disco/pop/funk of “I’m Alright” to soul, R&B, jazz, reggae,bossa
nova.
One of his biggest musical collaborations includes a remix that featured rapper
Alonestar, who is Ed Sheeran’s cousin, Snoop Dogg and uncredited (for legal reasons)
vocals from Ed Sheeran himself. He also has worked with vocalists and songwriters like
Paul Statham (Dido, Kylie Minogue), Morris Pleasure (Michael Jackson , Earth Wind
and Fire) who were also belonging to his mentors at the songwriting academy and also
some songwriters/artists like Tamra Hayden.
Manu has plans for the future like reworking and rereleasing some of his earlier tracks
like “Get On The Dance Floor.” He will also release new music that will continue to
showcase a plethora of genres and elements that will get listeners up and ready to have
a good time.
“I’m Alright” by Manu Chevalier featuring Lumina B is available on streaming services
and for download. It can be bought on Amazon and Apple Music from May 22nd, 2026.
