ABOUT
Joachim Des Ormeaux
Joachim Des Ormeaux is a poet, storyteller, and jazz artist with shamanic charisma, who gives a distinctive tone to the large galaxy of jazz. The artist, shaped by soul and funk music, and also by the Caribbean traditional rhythms of his origins, conveys an elaborate universe, a mysterious and mystical world tinged with accepted nostalgia and resolute hope. Creole gives full expression to the lyrics using a style full of poetic and metaphorical imagery. Always sharp, sometimes funny, with a pinch of teasing. His non-standard voice, like a gwoka escaping from a saxophone, holds his whole history in its bass texture. But above all, his voice offers a tremendous frame to his melodies, chants, and committed music. His music settles down like a float, exquisitely noticeable but still fascinating. Words flutter about you and come back to your memory even after listening.
"More than a listening, more than a concert, take part in the experience..." Joachim Des Ormeaux
