Place Ste-Opportune

Description

Discover the first album by singer-guitarist Thomas Curbillon, a record that reconciles the French language and swing. Accompanied by the cream of French jazz (Eric Legnini, Stéphane Belmondo...), guitarist and singer Thomas Curbillon unveils a first album with irresistible charm, which combines happy and tender lyrics with the richness of solos, in a record with mischievous texts, adorned with sumptuous arrangements... Sprinkled with nods to Salvador, Aznavour, and Nougaro, "Place Ste-Opportune" reconciles French song with swing. So French, so jazz! There was a time when jazz was all the rage. Supported by the magnificent piano of Eric Legnini, the double bass of Thomas Bramerie, and the drums of Antoine Paganotti, who poured their hearts into this work, Thomas Curbillon took pleasure in inviting trumpeter Stéphane Belmondo to illuminate some of his pieces with a solo.
