This band will surely be one of the riveting discoveries of this year's festival for many listeners. His startlingly tight, strikingly creative, and at times impishly humorous quartet features Sylvain Darrifourcq drums, Ivan Gélugne bass, Julien Tourey piano. Thanks to Consulat Général de France à Vancouver and Institut Français.
