Hello everyone!

My name is Charley Rose and I am a french jazz saxophone player who had the chance to move all around the world to play music as a sideman in different bands. Life has been sweet until now, lots of beautiful landscapes in background of the tours we did with great friends who will be brothers for life. Apart from being a sideman, I've always composed my music and had projects on my own. The travels nurturing my ideas and imagination have been a real source of inspiration for what is writing music.

This new album we recorded, started upon a beautiful feeling of friendship with the two other members of the band: Enzo Carniel on piano and Ariel Tessier on drums (check their beautiful band "House of Echo"). We met in Paris, first musically and then got to know each other and get along together perfectly well in our weekly meeting at the "Studio du Prado" in the popular neighbourhood of Strasbourg Saint-Denis.

Here is a shoot of our debut !

This friendship has committed us to work hard during two years before going to the studio and record this first real album.

We were amazed by the result and decided to release it.

The music is a combination of modern jazz and what I feel inside, habited constantly by a thousand melodies coming from where I went, outside in the world and introspectively, inside me. So you can hear ideas evoking composers of the XXth century like Prokofiev, Ravel, Messiaen, ethnics rythms, Indian karnatic music combined to contemporary jazz harmony, pop music etc... This is not calculated, this is just like your favorite and unique grandma's stew that she's been concocting since decades, a batch in which you can find all the memories, emotions and ideas that you've been building inside you since your childhood.

You can watch that short music video of Porky:

Fortunately, french collective Deluge is willing to release it on his label . This label is very representative of what is a true cultural engagement towards creative and new jazz musics. Founded by three very active jazz musicians willing to give exposure to the musicians of New-Aquitaine in both their region and Paris, representing the jazz diaspora of this beautiful vineyards area.

For instance on this label we can find Julien Dubois's band Le Jardin, have a look to the very nice and fun teaser here; Thomas Julienne's original Theorem of Joy and Clement Simon Quintet Man on the Moon among others...
