Carte blanche à Gautier Garrigue, Sirius au 38Riv Jazz Club

Contemporary jazz: Carte blanche to Gautier Garrigue, a rising star of the European jazz scene, who lights up the stage with bold compositions alongside Federico Casagrande.

Seen from Earth, Sirius is the brightest star after the Sun. It is both very bright and relatively close to the Earth. For many centuries, it concealed from astronomers its particular nature: it is in fact a binary star, a system of two stars orbiting a common point.

Whether as leaders or sidemen, Federico Casagrande and Gautier Garrigue are among the most sought-after musicians on the European jazz scene, collaborating with artists such as Vincent Peirani, Henri Texier, Flash Pig and Émile Parisien. They can be heard together in various line-ups, including the celebrated trio The Drops. Their collaboration was born in Paris more than fifteen years ago, but it is around their personal compositions and a shared elegance of approach that they have come together for this new project. A duo already described by the magazine Jazz News as magical!

Line-up: Federico Casagrande: guitar, effects; Gautier Garrigue: drums

The 38Riv Jazz Club is an intimate venue in the heart of the Marais (38 rue de Rivoli, Paris 4e), dedicated to jazz and improvised music.
