Lehmanns Brothers (USA) en Madrid

Bio LehmannsBorthers

Far from the shady bankers of New York, it is in Angoulême that in 2012, in a small garage on Lehmann Avenue, five high school students in music option, groove brothers sharing the same passion for the African-American rhythms. Influenced by funkers such as Prince, Ghost-Note or D'Angelo, the little Frenchies intend to revisit the famous jazz-funk of the seventies, while instilling hip-hop, house and nu-soul echoes.

 But here there are no covers, since these young musicians, with three EPs to their credit, present only compositions signed by the members of the group: guitarist Alvin Amaïzo, bassist Clément Jourdan, and keyboardist and singer Julien Anglade, in an incandescent rhythmic alchemy that has nothing to envy to their prestigious references. 

With its infernal rhythmic triangle supported by fiery brass, one can't resist their repertoire for long, which makes one's legs tingle and turns each of their concerts into a great mass of groove. 

It's no coincidence that these Lehmanns Brothers, whose maturity commands respect, have already impressed audiences by opening for Macéo Parker, Fred Wesley, Electro Deluxe and the Wu-Tang Clan, before being selected from among some 700 groups to perform in Montreux in 2017, and then at the Blues-sur-Seine and Jazzahead festivals in Germany.

 The Lehmanns Brothers are mainly a live band, which tours considerably in France but also beyond the borders: Belgium, Germany, Spain, Italy, England,... An audience is also starting to develop across the Atlantic, especially thanks to their latest single "Rain".
