Mise en vente : Vendredi 10 Juillet,

Fondé et dirigé par le pianiste, compositeur et chanteur Alain Mion, auteur-compositeur certifié disque d’or et de platine par la National Music Publishers' Association, Cortex s'est taillé une place unique dans l'histoire de la musique grâce à sa fusion novatrice de jazz, de rock et de funk.

Leur album emblématique de 1975, Troupeau Bleu, est aujourd'hui considéré comme un chef-d'œuvre et est devenu une pierre angulaire de la culture du sampling hip-hop. Ses grooves intemporels ont été réinterprétés par des artistes tels que Tyler, the Creator, Madlib, Rick Ross, Kanye West, Baby Keem et Damso. Avec plus de 220 échantillonnages répertoriés et plus de 120 millions d'écoutes sur l'ensemble des plateformes, l'influence de Cortex continue de résonner autant dans les univers du jazz que du hip-hop, créant un pont vivant entre l'âge d'or du jazz-funk français et la nouvelle génération de beatmakers.

À l'occasion de cette tournée, le public pourra découvrir un répertoire couvrant l'ensemble de la carrière du groupe.

Founded and led by pianist, composer, and vocalist Alain Mion, recognized as a gold and platinum certified songwriter by the National Music Publishers' Association, Cortex carved out a singular place in music history with their innovative fusion of jazz, rock, and funk.

Their iconic 1975 album Troupeau Bleu is widely regarded as a masterpiece and became a cornerstone of hip-hop sampling, its timeless grooves reimagined by artists including Tyler, The Creator, Madlib, Rick Ross, Kanye West, Baby Keem, and Damso. With over 220 documented samples and more than 120 million streams across all platforms, Cortex's influence continues to echo through the jazz and hip-hop communities alike, a living bridge between the golden age of french jazz-funk and the beatmakers of today.

On this tour, audiences can expect selections spanning the group's entire career.
