LÉA LAYNE QUARTET

A sparkling young pianist and singer with jazz, pop, and chaabi influences, Léa captivates her audience with vibrant, joyful concerts where her warm voice, humor, and sunny energy sweep everyone off their feet. A recent graduate of the Pôle Supérieur du Conservatoire de Paris, she already dazzles audiences with her songs behind the piano. Modern jazz, pop, chaabi... she mixes it all together with mischief, guided by her heroes Brad Mehldau, the Beatles, and Fairouz. A curious multi-instrumentalist, she also enjoys reinventing standards, slipping in her warm voice, her captivating phrasing, and a touch of whimsy that catches the ear. Before? She worked in Parliament. Then music came along, and boom! Her life changed tempo. Tonight, she takes you on a sonic journey between jazz and electronica, where grooves, improvisation, and surprising textures come together to create music that is both modern and captivating. You'll find influences from Thundercat, Louis Cole, Robert Glasper, Stevie Wonder, and even Radiohead, for a mix that grooves as much as it surprises. On stage, Mehdi Hamidou plays electric bass, Nils Josselin lights up the electric guitar, Léo Rodier energizes the drums, and the pianist/vocalist also explores the keyboards, offering rich harmonies and unexpected melodies.
