Mimi VERDERAME QUARTET : "BUMPY ROAD" - Igloo IGL 129

Mimi VERDERAME : drums
Jean-Marie ECAY : guitar
Gino LATTUCA : trumpet
Bart DE NOLF: acoustic bass.

The quartet that drummer Mimi VERDERAME leads on this new CD "Bumpy Road" offers an impressively solid rhythm drawing on his roots in be-bop and afro. It has assembled four peers at the peak of their musical talents : we are in turn stunned by the creativity of Gino LATTUCA's trumpet solos and seduced by Jean-Marie ECAYS's guitar taking us on a magical journey from be-bop to blues, ably supported by the double bass of Bart de NOLF. As to Mimi VERDERAME' s interpretation, it is impetuous yet sensitive, irresistible and rhythmical, the beating heart of the quartet. Mimi has also arranged and written most of the tracks, revealing yet another side of his talent.
