Les Frères Ferré

Les Frères Ferré : enter into the universe of gypsy swing…

Boulou and Elios Ferré most certainly heard guitar notes while still in the womb! From very early on in life, Boulou, who was something of a child prodigy, was capable of singing anything he heard. The press nicknamed him “guitar’s little Mozart.” As for Elios, he was intrigued more by the piano and Thelonius Monk. While Boulou’s direction was that of a classical jazz player, Elios was becoming more of a flamenco-rock musician.

Bach, Messiaen, and Bebop are the leitmotifs of their musical world, which is marked by emotion and refinement. Far from a formatted swing, the brothers shine with an incredibly intelligent and eclectic freedom whose strength is drawn from renewal. Impassioned defenders of gypsy free jazz, quick to quote but without passing off the work of others as their own, they regale in classical tunes, the rocking rhythms of the eighties, and Portuguese ballads.
They produce a chamber jazz of unmatched elegance.
