Hi,
very happy to announce that from now on I will not only be responsible for the exclusive bookings for Darrifourcq Hermia Ceccaldi in Germany/Austria/Switzerland, but also be working nonexclusive anywhere else!
INTRODUCTION
|
Kaiju refers to a well-known Japanese film genre in which preferably mutated monster lizards play a central role. The second album of the Franco-Belgian trio around drummer Sylvain Darrifourcq is just as surreal and bizarrely dimensioned. What a cosmos of diverse parallel worlds opens up here.
The cello of Valentin Ceccaldi drums ostinato power chords into the soundtrack, so that even a metal band would have their bright joy. Again and again he cuts short thematic phrases in between as if something old, overgrown urgently needs to be deconstructed. The new emerges simultaneously in the enormously powerful polyrhythmic structures that arise from Darrifourcq's drum set, as if in a kind of chaos of creation whirled around by the unleashed, sometimes polyphonic overblown tenor sax of Manuel Hermia.

|
Let's not call it experimental, because the three know very well what they are doing. A precisely calculated teetering between post-structuralist deconstruction and freaky free jazz. And they do it with serious joy of playing and irrepressible energy.

I don't know about you, but what I need more than anything right now (despite all my love of puzzle nights and hour-long walks) is intensity. No other word better describes a live experience with Darrifourcq Hermia Ceccaldi. Check out there tour dates and avails 2021 and 22 below - and don't hesitate to ask me about other periods.
