Jonathon Jurion,vibrant pianist from Guadeloupe, Jonathon Jurion. With his first solo release, Jurion explores the legacy of American saxophonist Marion Brown, a cult figure whose time in Paris left an indelible mark on the French Jazz scene. The session blends traditional Ka drums from Guadeloupe and the exceptional double bass of Michel Alibo with Jonathan’s piano to bring a percussive Caribbean reading of Brown’s diverse repertoire. Having seen him perform recently with Jowee Omicil, it’s no wonder that Jonathan is fast making waves on the French Jazz scene!
