Emmanuel Bex is a capital-A musician. He naturally belongs alongside the greatest French jazzmen, musicians without whom European jazz would not be quite what it is. A certified virtuoso of the Hammond B3 organ, an inventive composer and arranger, a sought-after sideman, and the initiator of original projects, his immense creative energy and insatiable appetite for novelty have led him to explore many musical worlds.

As we prepare to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the passing of the giant Eddy, who better than Emmanuel Bex to offer a tribute reinterpretation of his repertoire? "Eddy m'a dit" is an anthology of compositions blending the many eras and worlds of Eddy Louiss. Underpinned by a quest for purity and simplicity, it is a story in song that speaks of the multiple beauties of Eddy Louiss's universe. “It’s Eddy, that says it all,” chanted Claude Nougaro.
