Double around guitarist Julien Tassin

Guitarist Julien Tassin continues to turn heads with his music. He stands for strong, lyrical melodies, cinematic themes and a musical universe in which blues, rock, minimalism and jazz blend blindly. He presents his new solo album, sharing with you a quest for purity and the urge to push boundaries.

Together with classics Manuel Hermia and Chris Joris, Tassin then explores the horizons of contemporary blues, tinged with jazz and African music. A new trio is born.

The musicians

Julien Tassin is a guitarist from Charleroi who has followed a very common path: from blues and rock to jazz. His main goal now is to channel this broad baggage into his own style, which often hovers on the borders between genres.

Liege saxophonist Manuel Hermia is considered one of our most fascinating musical explorers, with a penchant for eastern sounds and ragas, as well as stunt work with his acclaimed trio with Valentin Ceccaldi and Sylvain Darrifourcq, which has rocked halls internationally.

Since the release of his album Until the Darkness Fades and the JazzLab tour that followed, Chris Joris has been back on the road. Joris is an icon of Belgian jazz, a percussionist ahead of his time who opened up the sound of the genre in these parts. Together with Tassin and Hermia, he once again provides a lively, adventurous sound.
