• DIGIPACK EDITION

Extraordinary Canadian pianist, Jean-Michel Pilc has unveiled his new release, Alive – Live at Dièse Onze, Montréal. Pilc is joined by his bandmates Rémi-Jean LeBlanc and Jim Doxas on bass and drums.

Music like this can only be achieved by such consummately impeccable musicians as these three gentlemen. LeBlanc and Doxas are not simply sidemen by any means, as Pilc’s music demands far more ownership of the music by all the collaborators. Throughout the album, the bass and drums solos are never just there to give them some playing space but are fully woven into the textural fabric of each piece.
