Stéphane San Juan, a French drummer, singer, and composer based in New York, introduces his latest acoustic trio project, drawing inspiration from African, Brazilian, and French music genres, fused with elements of jazz. While singing, San Juan plays acoustic drums and percussion, Kely Pinheiro adds her unique cello and vocal style, and Guilherme Monteiro accompanies on acoustic guitar, blending Brazilian essence with unconventional jazz. San Juan's global musical education and collaborations with musicians like Amadou & Mariam, Caetano Veloso, David Byrne and Jane Birkin enrich his compositions, resonating with cultural diversity. Sung in French and Portuguese, his original repertoire adds linguistic depth to this unique musical exploration, promising a transcendent sonic journey uniting hearts and souls.
