More Info
The second album by rising new talent on the French jazz scene Simon Chivallon. The discovery of a gifted young pianist who embraces the trio format with ease.

A very melodic album with a wide array of covers from The Beatles, Georges Brassens, Charles Trenet, Billy Strayhorn and Thelonious Monk.

Simon Chivallon’s sensitivity borrows from pop influences to hip-hop grooves and rock beats.

The clarity of the structures, the fluidity of the rhythms and the vigorous character of the melodies anchors them in the listener’s memory and keeps their appeal and their gleam intact.

An album made with two experienced musicians - acoustic bassist Nicolas Moreaux (from the band FOX) and drummer Antoine Paganotti (Plume).

Elegant digisleeve illustrated with artwork from the modern painter Paul Klee.

For fans of Brad Mehldau, Aaron Parks, Robert Glasper, Jacky Terrasson, Shai Maestro, Aaron Goldberg.
