Fabrice Martinez
Stev'in my mind
« His spirit sings out in my mind; how can one remain unmoved by a Stevie Wonder melody? How can one resist swaying to Stevie’s groove? » This joyful realization inspired trumpeter and composer Fabrice Martinez to turn on this groove machine. Immersing himself in Stevie Wonder’s music, he assembled an international powerhouse ensemble featuring bass, guitar, keyboards, and drums.
They don’t merely cover Wonder’s songs; they delve into his harmonies and rhythms, treating them as the standards they are and being inspired by the magic of his music. Joy flows from the stage to the audience, moving bodies and making sweat glisten on foreheads…
Spirit of Stevie, are you there?
