Green Wagon

Description

Green Wagon is the culmination of a musical partnership between three friends from diverse backgrounds. Recorded in 2012, this album marks the first trio project of Guadeloupean pianist Jonathan Jurion, accompanied by his drummer friend Arnaud Dolmen and Cuban double bassist Damian Nueva. The title Green Wagon evokes a shared space, a kind of sound vehicle where Caribbean, Afro-Cuban, and modern New York jazz influences intersect. Each track is an exploration of the roots and rhythms that unite the three musicians, blending tradition and innovation. The compositions, both personal and collective, allow for great freedom of improvisation, creating a fluid and organic musical flow. Through Green Wagon, Jonathan, Arnaud, and Damian weave an intimate, sincere musical conversation that is deeply rooted in their respective stories. The album is a bridge between cultures, a creative encounter full of energy and emotion. Thirteen years later, Arnaud Dolmen's label, Samana Production, releases this opus.
