NAMAS are a trio from Rennes, Brittany — pianist Gaël Bourgeault, upright bassist Léo Debroise, and drummer Victor Dubois. Born during the Covid lockdown in a manor house whose walls were covered in psychedelic tapestry, they have built one of the most distinctive sounds in contemporary French jazz.
Tonight is their declaration. Acoustic instruments pushed into electronic territory without losing depth — the piano reverberates like a synthesizer, the upright bass pulses like a bass guitar, the drums breathe with the hesitant cadence of J Dilla. Eight tracks across forty minutes of post-jazz, hip-hop soul, and the Atlantic coast of Brittany.
Masterized at the legendary Studios Ferber in Paris — the studio of Daft Punk and Serge Gainsbourg.
Namas make music that is progressive jazz, post jazz or something entirely different. Theirs is a distinctive style that finds a way to joyously flourish within the ambiguity of it all.
