Laurent Doumont - l'Americano (2019)

Laurent Doumont is a saxophone player, singer & songwriter from Brussels with a natural inclination for soul and jazz. In the 90’s he took part in Michel Hatzigeorgiou’s tribute to Jaco Pastorius. Around that time, Laurent began a career as a free lance musician, playing in several funk and jazz bands, including some gigs with Fred Wesley.

Laurent Doumont’s new project, "l’Americano" is an album of Italian songs from the 50’s and 60’s, joyfully adapted in the soul-jazz spirit he cares for. Vincent Bruyninckx (k), Lorenzo Di Maio (g), Sam Gerstmans (b), Adrien Verderame (ds) and Nicolas Fiszman (prod) are involved with him in this very personal project.
