Les Fils Canouche (music)
Genre : Music - General
Inspired by their discovery of the band Samarabalouf, Xavier Margogne and Matthieu Quelen picked up their guitars and formed Les Fils Canouche in 2005. The duo of friends from Laval quickly expanded into a quartet with the addition of a saxophonist and a double bassist. Self-taught, they embarked on small tours with their reimagined gypsy swing tunes: electric guitars, percussion, and touches of offbeat humour shook up the traditional Gypsy sound.
In 2008 the lineup evolved, with the arrival of two professional musicians. After several years of touring together, the four friends recorded "Les Pantophiles", in Angers.
The fruit of a long compositional process, this latest work takes the group to the heights of a fertile and uninhibited jazz: the creation of four virtuoso musicians, blending emotion and energy, elegance and dexterity like few others.
As a symbol of this accomplished transformation, the great Sébastien Giniaux on guitar and cello, and Noé Clerc on accordion, magnificently embellish these new hybrid compositions, a fusion of jazz and world music.
Composed primarily for the stage, this new recording forms the heart of a moving and immersive show.
