Inventive, contemporary, and masterful. These are some of the words that have been used to describe the musicians in this “one of a kind“ group assembled by renaissance saxophonist Bill Evans (Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, Soulgrass). Bill has had a successful solo career for over 30 years and continues to innovate with fresh ensembles. Keith Carlock has been at the helm of some of todays biggest bands (Sting, Steely Dan, John Mayer). Grammy-award winning keyboardist George Whitty has spent 30 years playing on the road with the Brecker Brothers, Herbie Hancock, David Sanborn, Richard Bona, Chaka Khan, Sadao Watanabe, and a dozen others. Pablo Contrearas is a Chilean bassist, composer, and music producer born in Curico, Chile. On 2012, he began his formal music studies at the Escuela Superior de Jazz (Chile), where he received a scholarship from maestro Christian Galvez. Later, in 2017, he traveled to New York City to participate in an international bass competition, where he won first place in the "Solo Bass Competition 2017 NY." In 2018, he won second place in the "Six Strings Theory" in the electric bass category.
Throughout his career, he has shared the stage with major artists, most notably in 2018, where he was part of the band of renowned Mexican singer Cristian Castro. He has also performed with artists such as Jesus Molina, Lihi Haruvi, Jermaine Parrish, Bobby Allende, Maurizio Metalli, and Chilean artists such as Andres de Leon, Asenjo, Nicole, Natalino, Alvaro Veliz, Daniel Guerrero, Christian Galvez, Cristian Cuturrufo, Orion Lion, Emilio Garcia, Ignacio Mena, Ivan Latapiat, Alejandro Espinoza, among others.

MALTED MILK

In collaboration with EMMECI srl 

www.emmeci.biz

ONLY for Italy

In cooperation with Cashmere prod 

https://www.cashmere-prod.com/ 

In its current form, enhanced by the arrival of brilliant new elements, the continent's most fearsome soul band is a true war machine. Malted Milk recently celebrated its 20-year career in a Stereolux filled with fans over-excited by its electrifying repertoire propelled by its brass section. Born as a blues duo, as it grew up, Malted Milk gradually invested its spirit of the African American soul until it found a perfect alchemy in recent years. The band stands out from other European ensembles for its ability to escape the blues cover band syndrome through its creativity. It's a mixture of funk, brass riffs, slender guitars, nervous bass lines and organ growls ... enhanced by Arnaud's voice. A real bomb of the French soul funk blues scene!

EP « Let Me Ride » released on October 2021 : https://soundcloud.com/maltedmilkmusic/sets/malted-milk-ep-2021-let-me/s-4l7oNV39dnN

New album released in 2023

Available first week of July 2025

Line up:

Regi Wooten - guitar/vocals

For over five decades the Wooten Brothers have been recognized as some of the most innovative musicians in existence and are collectively known as one of the most talented and dynamic band of brothers the world has ever known. A self-contained unit, the band consist of (from oldest to youngest) Regi on guitar/vocals; Roy on drums/vocals; Joseph on keyboards/vocals; and Victor on bass/vocals. The Wooten Brothers continue to honor their middle brother, Rudy, whose untimely passing in 2010 left the band without their one-man horn section. 

The new album will be released in April 2025,  a blend of influences from the past and present; Jazz, Funk, Soul, R&B, and more, woven together in a way that only the Brothers can produce.

Jonathan Scales Fourchestra
ONLY for ITALY
In collaborazione con Emmeci srl
www.emmeci.biz

Line up:

Jonathan Scales -  steel pan

E'Lon Jordan-Dunlap - electric bass

Maison Guidry - drums

The power trio of electric bass (E'Lon JD), drums (Maison Guidry), and steel pans (Jonathan Scales) combines elements of jazz, classical, and progressive rock, peppered with Latin rhythms and soulful outbursts of funk. From club and festival stages across North America and Europe, and tours of Africa, Southeast and Central Asia as a Cultural Ambassador for the US Department of State, the Fourchestra’s live shows make even the most jaded listeners forget where they are… even if just for a precious moment. This may seem an odd thing to say, but on the verge of releasing their eighth studio recording, Jonathan Scales Fourchestra is only now truly embracing their identity as a group. For many years, Jonathan’s live band was a fluid lineup of top-notch musicians, and even included an “all-star” version with bassist MonoNeon (Prince, Nas), drummer Sput Searight (Snarky Puppy, Snoop Dogg) and percussionist Weedie Braimah (Trombone Shorty, Christian Scott aTunde Adjuah), as well as a number of other marquee players. Now, however, the Fourchestra is a decidedly indivisible band, and Jonathan is writing for the trio, not just the pans.

Tom was also one of the youngest endorsed by the prestigious brands Ibanez Guitars and DV Mark Amp. He collaborates regularly with Ibanez by composing the music of the videos on which he promotes new models of guitar.

He is the holder of numerous prizes such as the SACEM Young Talent Award 2013 and 2014, the Jazzophare 2015 Special Jury Prizethe Jeune Espoir Action Jazz Prize in 2016, several Rives Awards and the Oloron-Sainte-Marie Notes in 2017.  At the end of 2017, he became the first winner of the prestigious PrixOne Rising Stars Jazz Award, awarded by an international jury including Jamie Cullum, Brian Bacchus, Mikhail Fridman, Karen Frivik and Sebastien Vidal.

In 2015 Tom released his first CD entitled "15". This album received a great success, and on January 2018 he released the second album entitled SPARKLING.
