APERO JAZZ : ADINDA HERTMANS & JOACHIM CAFFONNETTE

Toots Jazz Club / Grand Place / Map

Adinda Hertmans (v) & Joachim Caffonnette (p) The magical voice of the young singer everyone is talking about!

Mathieu Najean (voc, sax) ; Timothé Lemaire (voc, trb) ; Guillaume Gillain (voc, guit) ; Andrew Bolton (voc, b) Taking its name from the famous New Orleans café Morning Call Coffee Stand , this quartet, with its infectious good humour, has made a speciality of revisiting the barbershop repertoire popularised by the legendary Mills Brothers . They also weave in original compositions that sound so authentic one could hardly believe they were not written in the same era. Superb instrumentalists, accomplished showmen and masters of an impeccable vocal quartet sound, they are among the true gems of Europe’s traditional jazz scene. An unmissable concert!

A Brazilian musician with an irresistible groove, dazzling technique and an extraordinary sense of rhythm, he has been developing a musical universe of rare intensity for many years. In 2025, he released Caipora , a critically acclaimed album recorded with the great Seamus Blake , confirming the strength of his writing and the richness of his musical language. For this exceptional evening at Toots , Edu Ribeiro extends the spirit of this project in a dream line-up, joined by Vinicius Gomes , Doug Weiss and Seamus Blake , one of the most important tenor saxophonists of our time. On stage, this encounter promises incandescent, virtuosic and deeply inspired music. An exceptional quartet for an evening set to be one of the highlights of the season.
