      • Zara McFarlane at Pori Jazz Festival

        Zara McFarlane just might be one of the new jazz sensations of 2014. At least all signs point to this. Her second album 'If You Knew Her' was released in January and it presents a singer who has truly discovered her own voice. The album was released by Brownswood Recordings, run by the famed British DJ/tastemaker Gilles Peterson. The minimalist compositions and McFarlane's strong voice come together in a stunning way, making the release one of the early highlights of the new musical year. (62 min)

      • Build An Ark at the Banlieues Bleues festival in Paris

        Founded by the composer and arranger Carlos Nino, Build An Ark is a California collective of varying sizes in which talented young musicians rub shoulders with veterans of the Afro-jazz scene. Invited by the festival Banlieus Bleus, they revisit the utopian spirit of 1970s flower power, taking as inspiration the most inventive jazz of the period, the soul music impeccably interpereted by the baritone Dwight Trible, and pay a vibrant hommage to John Coltrane, 'slammed' by the griot Kamau Daa'oud. Love is everywhere! That is the credo of this combo, which was founded in the ruins of September 11, in reaction to the hateful climate of the time. Love is everywhere! is also a leitmotif for Vincent Berhault, juggler and performer from Seine-Saint-Denis who, after his poetic walks through Paris and its suburbs, rejoined the group on stage for an unforgettable happening. Los Angeles, Paris, Bobigny...Love is indeed everywhere! (48 min)

      • Hadouk Trio at Paris Jazz Festival

        Hadouk Trio Live at the Paris Jazz Festival; In the Parc Floral de Paris, during the festival, underneath a cold summer sun, the vagabonds of Hadouk Trio are back. The audience enters into the dream, feeling delicious new emotions. Loy Erlich, Steve Shehan, Didier Malherbe listen and respond to each other like old friends, it's joyful. We find ourselves swept off our feet, flying over a blue planet. These dancing acoustic sounds seem to come from a world juke box. It all makes perfect sense. We are lifted in the air. It's as if an electrical current connects the shivering public and this trio with a childlike soul. (51 min)
