Drummer Loïc Du Sablon, originally from Quebec City and now based in Montreal, releases his debut album, “Belvédère.” The album represents a retrospective of his musical life, bringing together the various influences that have allowed him to flourish as a musician. It features pieces inspired by modern New York jazz, progressive rock, and even power ballads, all in a jazz format focused on improvisation. With Nicolas Riverin on trumpet, Félix Dubé on piano, Étienne Bédard-Roy on double bass, and Alex Muscalu on guitar, the quintet performs virtuoso music that is sometimes rhythmically complex, sometimes lyrical and sentimental.
