About
After a first album in tribute to songwriters, followed by a second one that breathed the smell of warm Californian sand, Guillaume Vierset and his Harvest Group are back with a more enigmatic recording that takes us into an atmosphere between dream and reality: Lightmares.
Harvest Group is one of the projects of the talented guitarist Guillaume Vierset. If his musical repertoire is heterogeneous — think of his recent jazz-meets-rock project EDGES, still fresh and hot, and his numerous involvements in indie/pop projects — Harvest's universe is quite singular and recognizable from the very first listening. It lulls us with its jazz impregnated with a layer of folk and touches of rock music, but above all with a good dose of dreaminess. Almost functioning as visual compositions, both previous albums are very representative of this unique sound. In that same setting, Harvest's third album moves us once again, with the backdrop of this vague zone which separates day and night, light and shadow, dream and reality...
The repertoire of 'Lightmares' is presented in two parts: the first half illustrates the day, the other the night. Or is it the other way ‘round? The music lets us plunge into a world between dog and wolf, where we sometimes perceive frightening shadows, ultimately annihilated by the yellow flashlights and reassuring headlights of the melodies: Lightmares. The album also wants to make us feel the flight of time, which flows through our fingers while we try to hold it back and drink from it, day and night.
Thanks to the unique colour of Guillaume Vierset's compositions, his original line-up and a recognisable sound, Harvest Group has managed to establish itself as one of the most original jazz projects in the country. For Lightmares, the cello and soprano saxophone brilliantly take on their delicate role as dynamic and expressive sound textures, while Harvest's rhythm section has never been so organic and leader, composer and guitarist Guillaume Vierset keeps on surprising with his increasingly clear-cut and free phrasing. The journey is short, striking and astonishingly inspired.
