Guilhem Flouzat presents a third collection of songs recorded with the same quintet as the previous two; after Turn The Sun To Green and Bottommost, the drummer, composer, and songwriter releases I’m Nice on his label, Elstir Music. Supported by a band long devoted to his cause, he continues his patient and oh-so-valiant work, far removed from current trends. To achieve this, he draws on a wide range of influences, finding inspiration in artists as diverse as Prokofiev, Michael McDonald, Marcel Proust, and Max Roach. By consistently crafting lyrics and music that are both exquisitely detailed and mysterious, where precision never precludes a touch of wildness, he establishes his work for the long term. If you haven’t already, one day his music will reach you. There’s no rush.
