Bodies & Ideas

Description

« The spearhead of the new jazz/groove scene » (France Inter) In just a few years, saxophonist, composer, and producer Léon Phal has become one of the most exciting jazz musicians of his generation. After the critically and publicly acclaimed album Stress Killer, and a highly noted collaborative EP with the famous DJ and electronic music producer Folamour, released just a few days ago, Léon announces the upcoming release of his new album, Bodies & Ideas, on September 25 via Heavenly Sweetness/Sony Masterworks. Bodies & Ideas is a fantastic contemporary jazz album blending groove, vocal neo-soul (with Italian singer Fabiana Martone on « Murmulea »), rap (with rising French rap star Jungle Jack on « Pleine forêt »), and, at times, electronic music (« UK Rain ») - as Léon knows how to do so well.
