vibraphoneAbout
Alexis Valet unveils his new collective project "Valet & The Dogs" accompanied by friends Levi Harvey on piano, Slim Chikhaoui on double bass and Gustave Reichert on drums. "Establishing himself as one of the most exciting voices in the vibraphone's comeback, Alexis Valet presents a captivating album in a variety of formats. (...) In Alexis Valet, we discover an accomplished musician, with an assured personality, a straightforward gesture and clear intentions, who plays jazz without skimping, with a naturalness and presence that impose themselves. If here we find a sense of line inherited from the school of Lennie Tristano, there a phrasing punctuated by the accents of bebop, if his path passes through the harmonic sinuosities of Wayne Shorter, it's because he has been nourished by the art of those who have gone before him, and that he doesn't consider it necessary to forget the past in order to make his own work.
