Theatre National de Bretagne with Cecile Mclorin Salvant

A fantastic gig in Rennes with the wonderfully talented Cecile. La Section Rythmique has been lucky to perform some concerts with Cecile over the last couple of years. What a voice!

1st International Bristol Jazz and Blues Festival

Wow – what a great weekend in Bristol. A big congratulations to Denny Illet for programming a wonderful three days. Apparently, they are all set to go again next year. Well Done Bristol! I went over with July Saury and Harry Kanters. Here are some photos of our trio set with Harry, our trio set with Denny and a few from the Jam. You might just be able to make out Pee Wee Ellis and Lillian Boutte in a few of them who were regular late-nighters…

JazzAscona 2010 Photos – Paris-Sydney Connection + molto guests!

What a great session this was at the 2010 JazzAscona Festival! We started out as a quintet (Washingmachine, Pastre, Blenkhorn, Girardot and Nouaux) but were quickly joined by many friends…

Ehud Asherie and Aaron Diehl played some piano, Matt Minusteri strummed a few tunes. Dan Block blew some hot clarinet and Catherine Russell sung up a storm!! What great memories…
Thanks to Jacques Besse for the photos.
