Role: Pianist, Keyboardist, Recording Assistant
Collaborators: Elias “Kokou” Damawou
Since 2016 I have been collaborating with Togo-born trumpet player, jazz musician and composer Elias “Kokou” Damawou, a golden talent forging his own voice with an original repertoire combining rhythmic elements of Togo with jazz harmonies and arrangements.
This culminated in a recording session in April 2022. Two demo EPs had previously been produced with different lineups.
