José James José James (voice, guitar) Marcus Machado (guitar) Aneesa Strings (bass, voice) Aaron Steele (drums) Since bursting onto the international scene a little over a decade ago, José James and his honey-sweet voice are still as bewitching. The Minneapolis artist admits to being inspired by Marvin Gaye, the producer Flying Lotus and John Coltrane for his stylish blend of what makes up Great Black Music. Flitting between raw soul, soul folk, hip hop and jazz, James is in the microcosm of vocalists capable of keeping the crossover created by Ray Charles in the 50s alive. His first album (The Dreamer, 2008) pays tribute to Martin Luther King. The next one, Blackmagic, features the beatboxer Taylor McFerrin. His fourth album (in the meantime he recorded with Junior Mance, Chico Hamilton, Flying Lotus and the pianist Jef Neve), No Beginning No End, is on Blue Note. The more soulful than ever singer is back with Lean On Me (2018). After leaning on Billie Holiday and John Coltrane, this time he pays tribute to the living legend of American pop and the immense soulman Bill Withers. There are twelve unforgettable tracks by Withers, who celebrates his 80th birthday in July, produced by Don Was and recorded by a dream band: bassist Pino Palladino, Kris Bowers (fabulous Rhodes on the cover of Ain't No Sunshine), Brad Allen Williams and Nate Smith.

Airelle Besson, trumpet Sebastien Sternal, piano, Fender Rhodes Jonas Burgwinkel, drums Clémence Colin, chansigneuse For her third and last year in residence, Airelle Besson and her new trio (featuring Sebastian Sternal and Jonas Burgwinkel) embark on a bold and original project: to make human bodies resonate with their music in collaboration with deaf actress Clémence Colin. Unanimously praised by the critics, this young trio, whose jazz can be at once rhythmical and ethereal, pushes boundaries even further in this new encounter with what could be termed 'sign-song '.

João Bosco, lead, guitar/vocals Ricardo Silveira, guitar Guto Wirtti, bass Kiko Freitas, drums João Bosco has been loved in his home country of Brazil for decades, since the 60s when he first began composing and performing. In the early 90s, Bosco mounted a major tour of the US, and since then he has become increasingly popular internationally, regularly performing at the prestigious Montreux Jazz Festival. Despite his growing popularity outside of his homeland, Bosco remains thoroughly attached to Brazil to the point of never leaving it for extended periods; his music, though rooted in Brazil's classic samba and bossa nova traditions, combines rock and roll, jazz and other ethnic styles in an eclectic brew that is as inventive and challenging as he is. In 2017 Bosco received a Lifetime Achievement Award from The Latin Recording Academy at the 18th Annual Latin Grammy Awards. His new album, Mano Que Zuera, was released at the end of the year.

Tony Allen - The Source Tony Allen (drums) Mathias Allamane (double bass) Indy Dibongue (guitar) Jean-Phi Dary (Piano - keyborad) Nicolas Giraux (trumpet) Yann Jankielewicz (Tenor saxophone) Playlist Bad Roads Ewajo On Fire Wolf eat Wolf Push and Pull Crusing Cool Cats (Album The Source (Universal >Blue Note Records) Born in 1940 in Lagos, Tony Allen had never played any of the traditional percussion instruments only to straightaway become interested in their far-off cousin, that is to say, the drum kit. Self-taught, it was by listening to the recordings of Art Blakey or Max Roach that he perfected his technique of drum playing, even though he was working as a technician at the National Radio of Nigeria. His destiny took a new turn when in 1964 he made the acquaintance of Fela Kuti, firstly as part of the Koola Lobitos, then as conductor of Africa 70 where he developed a new language known as the Afrobeat, a mixture of Yoruba rhythms, of funk and of revolutionary themes. With Fela Kuti, Tony would append his rhythmic signature to around twenty albums, a unique manner of drawing out the rhythms with caressing energy, but which is fantastically efficient. For the rest of his career, Tony would spend it remaining faithful to the original Afrobeat and a multidirectional emancipation leading him through jazz, Dub music and international Pop.
