Let the rhythm hit ‘em🥁
Allow us to introduce @max_6bil , drummer for Captains of the Imagination who performed on every song of the new album and contributed his thoughts and ideas to the compositions and arrangements throughout.
Renowned for his skill and versatility, invited as a session musician or live drummer on many occasions, Max is also a key member of several groups such as @kumaquartet , @automobileclubband , @gauthiertoux trio, and @theblakats . Hip Hop, rock, jazz, he does it all and has a vast knowledge and appreciation of all music.
Kind, patient, and supportive, his personality is evident in his sound: a steady groove that carries the whole band. He's the rock to our roll and we're so grateful to have him with us🫂
Song: "You Don't Owe Me" featuring vibraphone solo by @jeanloutrebouxvibes and a verse from @mastaacepics
Our new album is born🎂
What started as an idea around a title, "You Owe Me Tears" grew over the next few years into the full album it is today. But in a sense this album took 6 years, since 2020 is when we released our previous LP. We knew we weren't ready for a full album until we had perfected our new sound, finally made possible thanks to the synergy with our incredible live band.
We appreciate every single one of you that listens, shares and supports, online and in person. Thank you for granting your faith in us - it fuels our drive to never compromise on our vision.
