With this new band, Victor Decamp tells a story about reconstruction through a lyrical and desarming music. The melodies borrowed to imaginary folkores and the organic compositions tell the emotional stages we go through after the loss of a close one.
Latyr Boye (cb), Éloïse Fagalde and Victor Decamp studied classical music , bringing to this formation a chamber music approach. Nina Gat (piano) et Léo Tochon (drums) have a very subtle and lively way of playing, wich brings a unique athmosphere to the music of the multi-awarded trombone player Victor Decamp.
The album will be recorded at the La Buissonne studio in September 2026, by Bastien Boissier. The mix will be made by Bastien Boissier.
