I was really fortunate this november to wander through Brussels and attend the very first concert of Stéphane Galland’s “Mystery of Kem” on the release night of the album in Flagey. What a night ! all my family was attending and even the youngest got mesmerised by Stephane Galland mastery on drums, rising on his seat each time he felt “something was happening on the stage” …I have to say this was not drums I heard on that night, although Stephane was playing a fine vintage kit (and amazing cymbals), I heard true musical expression, with fierce, fury, emotion, openness, generosity and genuine spontaneity.
