CHARLIE LE BRUN

It is now done with the publication of an excellent album of 11 tracks entitled Breton, because in Brittany are the roots of this young musician and singer settled in Ireland for more than ten years.

And he combines throughout the different tracks of his album, the two musical cultures that have cradled him since his childhood in Brittany. His musical style is the result of a clever mix of traditional Breton, Irish and folk music influences.
Whereas on his previous album, which was purely instrumental, Charlie called on three musicians to assist him, this time he has teamed up with pianist Ryan Molloy to present us with a beautiful musical album, on which he alternates Breton tunes and Irish melodies, as well as several songs, thus revealing a beautiful warm voice.
Eight Breton songs and seven Irish tunes are delicately alternated in three suites. Although Breton and Irish traditions are present here, Charlie offers us several personal compositions. In particular the songs Lorient and Ar Redadeg (The Race) and the tunes An Hent Treuz (The Sunken Path), Annaïg or Hanter Louar (The Half Moon). A tribute to Alan Stivell with a cover of Ev Chistr 'Ta Laou (Cider Song), a very popular song in Brittany. And of course the Breton anthem Bro Gozh Ma Zadoù (The Old Country of my Fathers).
Through an acoustic folk repertoire that nevertheless preserves the energy and dynamism of traditional music, Charlie Le Brun offers us an intimate glimpse into his own musical universe.
A superb album that highlights the strong musical links between Brittany and Ireland.
