Mixing Latin roots, festive rock and love of groove, the program of this first and only edition of the Pijones Fest promises to be iconic. Find out more about the day’s activities and the presentation of the different groups!
Pijones
Swaying wedding neo-wishes
Formed in 2014, this duo with a growing complicity met in Lausanne in an online ticketing box. Piti Sanchez and Nicolas Jones have since created their own style and taken their love around the world, from Bristol to Cali to Tanzania. In world exclusivity, they present us for the first time their single “Voeux de mariage”. An exchange that promises to be full of emotions, featuring MC Topaze Chantilly and two special guests: the Daddies.
Chao Quartet
Latin American repertoire and virtuosity
Pi de Pijones has a multi-talented sister. Among them, the ability to master the piano from classical music to salsa dura! Surrounded by three other passionate musicians, they created the CHAO Quartet to promote the musical richness that characterizes their origins. Maria Isabel Rocafort (keyboard), Daniel Guerrero (transverse flute), Iván Orlín Ariza Chacón (violin and gui tare) and David Rodríguez-Gil (cello and bass) revisit the Latin American repertoire. Bon voyage!
-Y- and friends
Funky pop rock and back to basics
In the 2000s, Pijones’ Jones spread his groove on the keyboard of the band Just for funk. Today, two of his acolytes keep the flame alive in a completely different formation, the group -Y- (pronounced why) and friends. Yannick Burri on guitar and Alain Gabarelle on percussion are now accompanied by the warm voice of Léonie Adler. An acoustic project with multiple influences, featuring original compositions and cover versions. Let’s groove again!
NA’MA
Caribbean folklore and Afro-Colombian sounds
NA’MA is a folk music collective from the Colombian Caribbean, whose rhythms are the result of native indigenous, African and Spanish influences. Made up of 5 musicians on drums, flute, saxophone and clarinet percussion, the group is a scaled-down version of the traditional papayera, a musical formation typical of this region. Its festive acoustic music tells a story, while giving you an irresistible urge to move your body.
