A tzigane violin, a gipsy guitar, a jazz bass, and the magic of Marseille's long summer nights: that's how Clair de Lune started, back in 2006.
Three laureates from the French Music Academia lost on the wandering roads of traditional music, Jean-Christophe Gairard, Jérémie Schacre and Nicolas Kœdinger bring together their classical, swing, jazz and flamenco moods to interpret and reinvent a colourful repertoire at the crossroads of Central and Eastern Europe.
Since 2006, Clair de Lune has been touring Europe and producing several records. They shared the stage with Les Yeux Noirs, Biréli Lagrène, Eric Luther, Opus 4 and Les Doigts de l'Homme, amongst others, and had the opportunity to play with world-class jazz guitarist Tchavolo Schmitt in 2014 and the violonist Tcha Limberger in 2015.
Clair de LuneTrio is an energetic and enthusiastic group, yet its main originality is in the diversity of its personal influences and repertoires: these three strong-tempered and contrasting musicians entangle themselves in complex and exhilarating compositions, part jazz, part folklore, in which echoes from all over Europe merge in a distinctively and delightfully Mediterranean sound.
