An all-star team dedicated to groove and celebration.

À New York, "THE GETDOWN" veut dire jouer de la musique ou danser, de manière efficace et contagieuse... et prendre du bon temps à faire la fête. A Paris, c’est un collectif dirigé par l'organiste Laurent Coulondre et le batteur Arnaud Dolmen. Ils sont le coeur battant de cette aventure à géométrie variable.

Une formule totalement inédite et franchement spectaculaire. De l’orgue, de la batterie, du fender, du piano, des claviers... ce groupe réunit d'immenses talents laissant chacun leur égo de côté pour parler musique, connivence et plaisir de jouer ensemble !! C’est un all stars au service du groove et de la fête.

Il y aura de la Guadeloupe, de Cuba, beaucoup de caraïbes, mais aussi bien sûr du swing, du funk, des mélodies, et si l’on devait leur trouver une influence commune, celle, tutélaire et joyeuse, de Michel Petrucciani.
