Musical artist
Royce Campbell (born June 7, 1952) is a jazz guitarist from Indiana who was a member of the Henry Mancini orchestra for twenty years.
Musical career
[ edit ]
He was born in North Vernon , Indiana. When he was five, his mother married a career Navy man, and Campbell grew up in cities throughout the U.S. and the world.[1] Exposure to a variety of genres contributed to his musical style. A love for rock and roll marked his first connection with the guitar, at the age of nine, when he discovered Chuck Berry . Like many guitarists of his generation, he was influenced by Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton .[2]
By the time he finished high school in Spain in the early 1970s, he had decided to pursue a career in music. His uncle, pianist Carroll DeCamp, who had done arrangements for Stan Kenton and Les Elgart , invited him to Indianapolis to live and study. His uncle provided his education in music theory and composition.[1] At 21, he toured with rhythm and blues (R&B ) singer Marvin Gaye before spending twenty years as a member of the Henry Mancini orchestra. He held the job until Mancini's death in 1994.[3]
During the 1990s, Campbell recorded more as a leader. In 1993, he produced Project G-5: A Tribute to Wes Montgomery which also featured guitarists Tal Farlow , Jimmy Raney , Herb Ellis , and fellow Hoosier Cal Collins . His 1994 album 6x6 featured guitarists Pat Martino , John Abercrombie , Larry Coryell , Dave Stryker , and Bucky Pizzarelli . On Project G-5: A Tribute to Joe Pass (1999) he combined the talents of Charlie Byrd , Gene Bertoncini , Mundell Lowe , and John Pisano .
In November 2010, Campbell was inducted into the Indianapolis Jazz Foundation Hall of Fame.
