Trio RESISTANCES
"By turns lyrical, impulsive, meditative and humourous, the music of the Trio Résistances, led by drummer Bruno Tocanne and featuring Lionel Martin on saxophones and Benoît Keller on bass is full of wonderful surprises. Inspired as much by the revolutionary messages of Martin Luther King and Salvador Allende, as by free-thinkin musicians as Paul Motian and Charlie Haden, this trio shares an uncompromising belief in self-expression and a elentless pusuit of the path less travelled... For over 20 years, drummer Bruno Tocanne has been a conduit for french jazz while gracing the bandstand with international stars such as Paul Rogers, Jean Vanasse, Steva Potts, Dave Burell... Fellow agitators Lionel Martin and Benoît Keller have played in numerous festivals both at home and abroad, including performances with Irakere musicians, Serge Lazarevitch, Didier Havet or Louis Sclavis... All three are all members of imuZZic, a collective uniting some of the most creative musicians of the French jazz scene"
