On retrouve Etienne Mbappé et son quartet de haute volée lors de cette #CarteBlanche, à la découverte d’un de ses projets les plus chers : un Album Country – Folk, musique qu’il affectionne particulièrement, en y introduisant des ingrédients colorés et épicés de son Afrique natale. Accompagné de ses 3 fidèles compagnons et artistes émérites Christophe au piano et violon, Phil à la guitare, mandoline et violoncelle, Anthony à la guitare et Nicolas à la batterie, Etienne nous promet un voyage aux sonorités calmes et apaisantes, douces et enveloppantes, rassurantes et réconfortantes, qui nous éloigne le temps d’un concert de l’agitation urbaine tonitruante et frénétique, pour explorer en dehors.Une approche en profondeur pour faire résonner les arpèges et autres balayages cristallins des guitares acoustiques aux cordes en acier, qui sont la base de l’instrumentation Country – Folk. « COUNTRY – SIDE », une invisible passerelle au-dessus de l’océan Atlantique, qui relie les rythmiques secrètes africaines à la musique Country - Folk américaine. Deux mondes qui vont s’entrelacer dans des danses occultes, aux mouvements circulaires. Voix captivantes et mélodies envoûtantes aux accents vernaculaires.
