THIEFS – GRAFT (La Greffe)

“THIEFS” is an emblematic band of the new French Jazz/Hip Hop scene founded by the saxophonist Christophe Panzani. It released its second album called GRAFT (La GREFFE) in 2018. This album has been acclaimed in Europe and in the United States as one of the most powerful album on the avant-garde scene. Reflecting the complexity of mixed culture as an “objet d’art”; musical object, fruit of our time, mixing acoustic and electronic music, vocal and instrumental, jazz and Hip Hop… But also a reflection about mixed culture as a fruit of human migrations, in our troubled times. THIEFS makes a statement, and proves the fruits of these multiple Grafts to be strong, beautiful and needed.
