Moutin Factory Quintet at Kerrytown Concert House

Just in itself, that’s big news: Francois Moutin and Louis Moutin, the twins of Jazz, are coming up with a new project – the Moutin Factory Quintet – a renewed sound and inspiration. Doing so, they are rallying around themselves three personalities chosen amongthe strongest and most exciting of today’s scene. Between Thomas Enhco’s incisive playing, at once poetic, Emmanuel Codjia’s lyrical style immersed in the spirit of the blues and Christophe Monniot’s hint of madness coupled with a deep melodic sense, Francois and Louis Moutin take advantage of the unique strength of their twinhood and have fun catalyzing the emulsion of energies.

Just in itself, that’s big news: Francois Moutin and Louis Moutin, the twins of Jazz, are coming up with a new project – the Moutin Factory Quintet – a renewed sound and inspiration. Doing so, they are rallying around themselves three personalities chosen amongthe strongest and most exciting of today’s scene. Between Thomas Enhco’s incisive playing, at once poetic, Emmanuel Codjia’s lyrical style immersed in the spirit of the blues and Christophe Monniot’s hint of madness coupled with a deep melodic sense, Francois and Louis Moutin take advantage of the unique strength of their twinhood and have fun catalyzing the emulsion of energies. A new group is born.
The album Lucky People is the founding milestone of this creation. It is spilling over with this palpable happiness, which is the trademark of Moutin brothers’openly generous music. Their new compositions propose melodies, grooves and ambiances that carry us from melancholy to sensuality, from anger to sadness, from an ecstatic bliss to the physical jubilation of dance. Going through all these feelings builds our sensation of being fully alive.
These “Lucky People” mentioned in the title, are each of us, when we feel and savor our emotions within our deeper selves.

This concert is supported by the Don Chisholm Friends of Jazz at KCH.
