In the early 2000s, on the advice of Biréli Lagrène, Jim and Jon Grandcamp met Hadrien Féraud in Paris. It was on the stage of the Baiser Salé that the musicians began to play together, notably alongside François Constantin at the Monday night jam and that the trio naturally formed. A bass virtuoso, Hadrien Féraud has collaborated with John McLaughlin, Chick Corea, Billy Cobham, Gino Vannelli, Jean-Luc Ponty, Biréli Lagrène, André Ceccarelli, Sylvain Luc to name a few… Sailing between Los Angeles and Paris, Hadrien is overflowing with projects, desires, initiatives and in Paris, it is always on the stage of the Baiser Salé that he stops to experiment and create. Jim Grandcamp nourishes a love for improvised music and music for images. Swift and subtle, Jim is a musician who touches the heart. His flights of fancy enhance the bass/drums rhythm and transport the audience every time. Jon Grandcamp demonstrates an instinctive and flamboyant subjectivity. He develops a colorful style, very influenced by African music and rhythms. His drumming language is dictated by percussion, influenced by his many concerts alongside Sandra N'Kaké, Emma Lamadji, Cheick Tidiane Seck, Fatoumata Diawara, Blick Bassy Oumou Sangaré... the playing of the "dads" as he calls them Mokthar Samba, Paco Sery... Groove, funk & fusion perfectly characterize Michael Lecoq's style. Whether alongside Hadrien Feraud, Dam&co, Jean-Marie Ecay or Jean-Luc Ponty, he is the keyboardist of pure magic and amazing solos!
