Manetti, Romane & Richard - Pere & fils (Father and son)
Touched by Django Reinhardt’s style when he was young, Romane wanted, during many years, to let the music play again to the way of a certain french jazzy tradition called sometimes manouche jazz or gypsy swing.
Among all jazz guitarists revealed these last ten years, Romane is resigned to use the experience of the Past to get the best of today’s music Romane uses to think his music and besides he’s always listening to the others.
It’s beyond his wish to make the tradition evolve. He also wants to open the wings of culture to whom it will interest. A lot of educational works can testify in it
A great discography (a few more 12 albums signed on his name). We also have seen him crossing strings with some brilliant artists like Bob Brotzmann, Babik Reinhardt, Chet Atkins, James Carter and, of course, Didier Lockwood with whom he shares international scenes since the last two years.
