Living between Texas, Louisiana and islands off the East Coast, T. Champagne channels his love of funk, roots rock, and island grooves into a danceable blend of music that utilizes percussive phrasing and catchy lyrics to engage fans to embrace hope, freedom, change...and most of all, life. T. Champagne grew up with the best of both worlds, Texas Pride and a strong Cajun Spirit with a musical foundation of piano, bass, and drums. After a decade of stage performances with numerous prior acts, T. found his true sound as a songwriter in Austin, TX and began his solo career in 2006. Keeping true to the form of movement, art and soul, T. began touring the states with his act, "Champagne with Friends" releasing their first album, "Old Town" in 2008.

In the spring of 2011, T. Champagne participated in "The Swamp Sessions" in Awendaw, SC along with Edwin McCain, Mark Bryan, Phillip Lammonds and Danielle Howle. T. His second album entitled "Life", features the single, "Sunshine Smilin" produced by Mark Bryan and Danielle Howle. In the fall of 2011, T Champagne toured all of the SEC college campuses for the 2011 "SEC Football Tailgating Tour", sponsored by The Music Initiative Magazine, as well as being named "Emerging Artist of the Year" by The Music Initiative Magazine for 2012. T. Champagne will be touring the Gulf Coast, Rockies, and the Midwest starting in mid-May 2012 with his new trio, as a vocalist and bassist.
