Thomas Carbou - Ici et ailleurs (2019)

Rare expert on the eight-string guitar, Thomas Carbou released two albums simultaneously in 2019: "Here and elsewhere" and "Re: Cycling". These releases are the 21st and 22nd of a discography that dates back to 1997 for the prolific electro-jazz musician.

"Here and elsewhere" is a touching tribute to the memory of relatives of Carbou lost to the hands of Alzheimer's, an insidious evil in its degenerative nature. In the ambiguous vagueness of physical presence and mental wandering, the bereaved musician explores the sweet memories of the last moments of lucidity of loved ones who have disappeared today, so as to immortalise them in a comforting music breathing serene nostalgia.
