Bruce Ellison & The Jellodies
Tribute to Fats Waller & Louis Armstrong

Bruce Ellison (vocal)
Patrick Louis (guitar-vocal)
Druss Lecomte (piano-vocal)
Guillaume Durieux (double bass-vocal)

Bruce Ellison began as a mime and voice-over artist for American television, as well as in musicals. In 1981, he arrived in Paris and joined the Marceau mime school. Founder with Michel Carcan of the Théâtre de la Mandragore, he also lends his voice to a number of advertising campaigns as well as children's programs. He is also the lead singer of the rock band PPZ30. He is the director and actor of the strange Mister Knight. With The Jellodies he proves to be an excellent singer in the color and antics of Thomas Fats Waller and the sung Jazz of Louis Armstrong

The Jellodies is a group inspired by the famous trio: Art Tatum-Charlie Christian-Ray Brown:

Pat Louis (guitar and vocals) who moves from blues to jazz repertoire with a playing marked in particular by Freddie Green, Tiny Grimes and the great Charlie Christian;

Druss Lecomte (piano and vocals) whose colorful playing will remind you of the swing of Count Basie and Nat King Cole, the stride of Thomas "Fats" Waller, James P. Johnson, the humor of Erroll Garner, the playing of 'Art Tatum. He opened for Fats Domino and Ray Charles. He has a long career as a jazz, blues, ragtime, stride piano, swing and boogie woogie pianist. At his first concert, at the Os à Moelle in Brussels, he was only...17 years old;

Guillaume Durieux (double bass and vocals), the youngest of the trio, already has superb technique and very high level slap.

The Jellodies is the swing and jive of the Nat King Cole Trio, Count Basie's rhythm section but also Willie Dixon's Big Three Trio, all this for our greatest happiness, "groove" wickedly!.. .

The alchemy that results from the meeting between Bruce Ellison and The Jellodies is absolutely magical.

“Montuno” is the first band he created in 1985 together with Daniel Moffat and Frankie Rose.

After that, Vincent Penasse decided to travel to Brazil where he lived there from 1999 to 2010 in Salvador de Bahia.

During his period in Brazil he had the opportunity to play in different Brazilian bands such as forro, bossa nova, samba and jazz bands. He played with multiple artists including: Lima Alves, Mou Brasil, Tati Lima, Arrocha o no, Roberval Santos and Horracio Barros Reis.

In the city of Salvador, he met Ricardo Sibalde, which is a musical arranger for Carlinhos Brown.

Together, Ricardo Sibalde and Vincent Penasse worked hard on the creation of a saxophone quartet which has as a repertory music from the Nord-East of Brazil.

The style of the Araucaria band is a very particular style in which they mix popular music from Brazil such as samba and specifics rhythms from Bahia, while creating a jazz feeling and making room for improvisation.

The repertory is made out of Brazilian composers and some tunes written by Vincent Penasse.
