Patrick Zabé
Born December 12, 1941 in Quebec City, Canada, Patrick Zabé, whose real name is Jean-Marie Rusk, is a Quebec pop singer. In 1964, he released the album Jean Rusk Chante Pour Vous under his real name, but it met with little success. In 1965, he joined the group Les Doyens. The same year, the group released the 45 rpm "Donne-moi ta chaleur", which also met with little success. The following year, producer Guy Cloutier became his agent and suggested he change his name to Patrick Zabé. In 1967, he covered a Box Tops hit , "The Letter" , which he Frenchified as "La Lettre" . The song is a hit with Quebec radio stations. This was followed in 1968 by another popular single, "Les Lunettes ". The 1970s were a prolific period for the singer, with several songs topping the Quebec charts, including "Oh! Darling" in 1970, "Ah! C'qu'on est bien dans son bain" in 1971, "Agadou dou dou" in 1974, "Je bois de l'eau dans mon lit d'eau" in 1974 and "Señor météo " in 1975. Patrick Zabé turned his attention to business in the mid-1970s. He founded the Zabé Jeans chain of stores, specializing in the manufacture and sale of jeans. In 1996, he decided to devote himself to his passion for antiques. He sold his jeans store to set up an antiques boutique in Quebec City's Old Port. On April 1, 2004, he released a new album entitled Mambo, Tango...Et Providence after more than a decade without a single release. In 2018, in connection with the ban on cell phone use in Quebec that came into effect that same year, he released the single "Le Zéro du texto".
