about

"Identité" is an explosive jazz album in colour, born from the marriage of the rhythmic timbres of the Indian Ocean, the maloya of Reunion Island and the harmonies of American jazz.

Rhythm, melody, form and improvisation are the elements that have built "Identity", an album that moves the lines and the mix of genres in jazz. Inspired by the "knowledge of the elders and the Reunionese community", Gaël Horellou asserts that he has rediscovered the energy and authentic power of jazz through the African pulse of maloya.

An identity to look for somewhere between a corrugated iron hut roof and Brooklyn's red brick.
