Eever oscillating between calling himself a violinist or a fiddler, and playing within those lines, he has developed an original sound and technique. His main project, the Jeremy Gignoux Acoustic Ensemble plays lyrical instrumental music that defies genre classification, stretching from Parisian Swing to folk experiments. His compositions are featured in his first album Cinacoustic.
While classically trained in France, he has spent his career in Canada getting involved in many other styles from country fiddle to jazz and exploratory music. His artistic purpose lies in balancing his admiration for traditional music and his longing for weird sounds, his regard for the composition form and tendency toward improvisation.
The Acoustic Ensemble:
- Jeremy Gignoux, violin / fiddle
- Keith Rodger, bass / banjo
- Wayne Garrett, guitar
