DOUBLE CONCERTS:

💥 DEMIAN CABAUD “OTRO CIELO”
“Otro cielo” is the latest project from bassist Demian Cabaud.
He is one of the most important and requested musicians in Portugal and his music, on this disc, is described as follows by the great pianist Leo Genovese:
“Demian's music is a flying entity and the band is a breathing organism capable of transforming the atmospheres of reality. The sounds on this album are somehow rooted in thoughts of his native country, Argentina, and his current country, Portugal. Using elements of different modern forms of expression through improvisation, Demian and his band manage to take you on this exploratory odyssey. Fasten your seatbelts and get ready to go places unimaginable with the sound of this set.”

💥 9:30 pm: LIONEL LOUEKE SOLO
Praised by his mentor Herbie Hancock as “a musical painter”, Lionel Loueke combines harmonic sophistication, melodic flights, deep knowledge of African music and extensive guitar techniques to create a warm and evocative sound all his own.
“Loueke's lines are cleverly formed and expertly executed. Its ear-pleasing melody draws both from traditional African sources and from a lifetime of close study of musicians like Jim Hall and George Benson, and its rhythmic changes are quick and full of surprises. JazzTimes
📍Lionel Loueke, electric guitar, effects
