of the french scene ..."
NEVERS DJAZZ
"Some of the most creative musicians of the french jazz scene."
"By turns lyrical, impulsive, meditative and humourous,
the music of the Trio Résistances, led by drummer Bruno Tocanne
and featuring Lionel Martin on saxophones and Benoît Keller on
bass is full of wonderful surprises. Inspired as much by the
revolutionary messages of Martin Luther King and Salvador Allende, as
by free-thinkin musicians as Paul Motian and Charlie Haden, this trio
shares an uncompromising belief in self-expression and a elentless
pusuit of the path less travelled... For over 20 years, drummer Bruno
Tocanne has been a conduit for french jazz while gracing the bandstand
with international stars such as Paul Rogers, Jean Vanasse, Steva
Potts, Dave Burell... Fellow agitators Lionel Martin and Benoît
Keller have played in numerous festivals both at home and abroad,
including performances with Irakere musicians, Serge Lazarevitch,
Didier Havet or Louis Sclavis... All three are all members of imuZZic,
a collective uniting some of the most creative musicians of the French
jazz scene"
