Yannick Noah is a household name in France; in fact, he recently topped the annual list of the “Top 50 Most Popular French Personalities” in his homeland for the eighth year in a row. A onetime tennis champion whose winning of the French Open in 1983 brought the trophy home for the first time in four decades, he remains the last Frenchman to have won the French Open men’s singles title. Noah transitioned to his second love when retirement beckoned. His music career began in 1991 with “Black or What!”, and over the last two decades Noah has released ten albums, which have sold a collective 10 million copies, and he has performed throughout Europe. Now Yannick is proud to announce the US release of his eleventh CD, “Hommage”, which will be available on October 9th on RED/Sony Music France, with sales and marketing management by Creative Entertainment Network. A life-long Bob Marley fan, “Hommage”, which is a collection of eleven new takes on Marley classics, is his tribute to the legend – a dream Noah had of creating for his idol for years.
