Laurent Coulondre "Meva Festa
Laurent Coulondre, from Nîmes, was crowned 'Instrumental Artist' at the 2020 Victoires du Jazz awards for his album 'Michel on My Mind', which also won 'Best French Jazz Record' from the Académie du Jazz. A sunny, exotic project aptly named Meva Festa. A mixture of Catalan and Brazilian that translates as "My Party", the artist conveys the joie de vivre that is his trademark, as well as his vision of music, life and sharing. Surrounded by his favourite friends and musicians, Laurent invites us to enjoy his warm, festive Latin jazz, which also pays tribute to his Spanish origins and the South America he loves so much.
"With an eye on South America and Cuba, Coulondre makes his organ roar and his funk keyboards clack as if it were de rigueur" La Terrasse
"He infuses the genre with his own sense of celebration." Télérama
"A festival of rhythms and brass, the pianist invites us to his colourful, piquant and irresistible party! A great favourite". TSF Jazz
"Better than a record, an explosion of music! You'll come away satiated, drunk on drums and celebration". Jazz News
"A deliciously enjoyable album with a terrific groove that promises explosive and enjoyable concerts". Jazz Magazine
"Somewhere between brassy funk, jazz, samba and Brazilian popular music, pianist Laurent Coulondre's album Meva Festa (My Party) grooves at every turn, taking us on a journey through Afro-Cuban and Brazilian sounds and rhythms. Winner of the Instrumental Artist of the Year award at the 2020 Victoires du Jazz awards for his tribute album to Michel Petrucciani, Michel on My Mind, which also won the "Best French Jazz Record" award from the Académie du Jazz, Laurent Coulondre excels in every register, be it jazz, electro, fusion or groove. He is recognised as one of the young masters of keyboards and has a marvellous grasp of the codes of jazz" Equinoxe Chateauroux
