Releases from artist / Veröffentlichungen von : Florian Pellissier Quintet

at the vanguard of a new unbridled french jazz scene, and attracted to the rich ramifications of modern grooves, the florian pellissier quintet has since its inception in 2002 expressed an attraction for far-flung pursuits though discernible on previous albums today this fascination is front and center of bijou voyou caillou, the quintet’s fourth album, coming out on the heavenly sweetness label on april 27.

florian pellissier’s very own interpretation of african jazz, with african intonations and sounds acting as a free flowing compass. propelling his quintet, instruments still warm from having recorded biches bleues and the touring that followed, florian had his brotherhood of deer leap and gallop from almeria to beyond the mediterranean. from europe to africa, driven by the intensity of the rhythm section, blown forward by the winds of saxophone and trumpet, they travelled the length of the continent, a ribbon of black and white keys dancing under their hooves.

timeless, florian pellissier quintet journey through jazz from paris to new york. a rule of the game is to find the flavor of new yorkers groups from the 60s to mix with european musicians of the time. organic, inspired, it would take ten years of concerts and two albums to reach the goal: iches bleue promises to be a gateway album, a hidden passageway between eras, a scientific miracle. a sax, trumpet, piano, bass and drums, no artifice, a simple sound
