LIVE SOUL MUSIC - ORIGINAL SEPTET BAND - LUDWIG NESTOR (MONDAY)
Thanks to his parents of Haitian origin, Ludwig Nestor was introduced to music at a very young age. It is in the suburbs of Paris that he listens to popular classics Kompa from Haiti.
Student at the conservatory, he is quickly at ease on stage with his guitar and especially his voice. The audiences he meets confront him with an obvious fact: music will be his most powerful vector for uniting people and soothing souls. Utopian? You might think so, but his funky energy on stage would win over any haters for a night. Whatever the musical style, the Groove is its essence. He knows the Zéniths de France with the show "Gospel pour 100 Voix" since 2015 and renowned festivals with the artist "Gystère"
His repertoire, a journey through time passing through different continents, is a pleasure for everyone and never disappoints.
For Jazz Roots, Ludwig revives the soul music of the 60s, with the composition of a group of 7 people. It's an incredible event for the last night of jazz roots.
