Rabble Without A Cause, June 11: Éric Normand's new releases
Rimouski-based bassist Éric Normand has a new solo and duos album, as well as an ensemble release from December 2024
On Wednesday night’s show I will be featuring new music from Éric Normand, a bass player, composer and producer based in Rimouski.
In December 2024 he released an album with his group Brûlez les meubles (Burn the furniture). Brûlez les meubles is Normand with Louis Beaudoin-de la Sablonnière on electric guitar. On this new release, “Folio #5”, they are joined by German tenor saxophonist Ingrid Laubrock, Jonathan Huard on vibraphone and Marianne Trudel on piano. We will hear three tracks from this release.
For the second part of the show we will hear selections from his new release, “Une méthode (non illustrée) pour jouer la basse électrique” of solos and duos.
Here he is playing with Xavier Charles in 2024.
You can listen live at 93.1 on the FM band in the National Capital Region at 11 p.m. EST or through live streaming worldwide at CKCUFM.com. The show is also available for on demand streaming.
