Les Disques Bongo Joe

After seeing photos of our record store in Geneva named after their long-lost relative, George 'Bongo Joe' Coleman's family was overjoyed that European music lovers decided to honor his name. To learn more about Bongo Joe Coleman, you can visit <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bongo_Joe_Coleman">this link</a>. And if you want to experience his unique sound and style, check out his performance of "I Wish I Could Sing" <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ez_3bqMI

Following in the footsteps of L'Espròva, a record released in 2018 by and Mantras, a body of long instrumental pieces, Ernest Bergez joins Jacques Puech, Elisa Trebouville and Loup Uberto to explore the possibilities of a collective energy. L'Herbe De Détourne achieved to catch the vivid energy of the band playing live and combined it with all the sonic explorations the musicians had in mind for a long time, in a completly free state of mind. Themes and songs are wound up in complex rhythmic gears and follow one another in a continuous momentum. Freely digested, the traditional repertoire from the Massif Central mutates and hybridises with invented forms, inspired by traditional Greek, Persian and North African music... The result is music that is as much for the ears, the feet, as for the guts and perhaps the heart. It can be a ball, a concert, or a spontaneous ceremony. The Occitan language takes a central place, both as musical material and as a poetic and emotional springboard. Inspired by traditional canvases, a poetic form emerges and makes its way through the old words, passed from mouth to mouth.&nbsp;
