With 2017’s Bricks, his first album on Blue Note and one filled with jazz/blues/pop gems, Frenchman Charles Pasi had his breakthrough ough. Now he’s back with new release Zebra.

Zebra is Pasi’s second album on Blue Note and is released on 5th February. The singer, guitarist and harmonica virtuoso has spent two years writing new songs while touring his previous release, playing hundreds of shows around the world: China, Tunisia, the Netherlands, Germany, Turkey, Mauritius…

From the start, Pasi has been pushing through barriers. Finalist of the Memphis International Blues Challenge in 2006, a support act for Neil Young, a deal with Blue Note in 2015 and a performance at Montreux in 2018, he has surely and steadily been fulfilling his childhood dreams.

Let yourself be seduced by the jazzy blues assumed by the Parisian songwriter through this inevitably sexy opus.

Charles Pasi, forbidden to be a good-looking French-Italian, straight in his thirties, has a voice as an old master, writes down-to-the-minute jazz / blues songs with the stuff of the classic and collaborates with colleagues from Carla Bruni to Archie Shepp. Now Blue Note can be proud of him: his label debut “Bricks” is a musical fortune and the starting shot to a wonderful career.
