Inner Forest

Born from a shared need to slow down in a fast-paced world, the music is a continuous breathing space that was allowed to mature naturally over time without being rushed. This spontaneous yet profound creation serves as an internal look into Julien’s own life stories, turning themes of nostalgia, presence within the absence, and communion into vivid, contemplative imagery where virtuosity and ego take a backseat to collective storytelling.

Deeply organic and intentional, the music is heavily infused with a shared healing dimension. Erwin and Jean-Marc’s both individual sensitivity to mindfulness, blend seamlessly with Julien’s sensitive nylon guitar. Enhanced by special guest Mathieu Robert on soprano sax and shakuhachi, the trio's raw, acoustic purity is further elevated by artistic director John Parish. By utilizing analog effects and tape rather than over-processed digital sounds, John emphasizes a vibrant, unpolished, and meditative soundscape that acts as an open invitation to heal the mind and connect with the world.
