Happy heavenly Birthday to my dear cousin Dimitri Happy heavenly Birthday to my dear cousin Dimitri ! Also known as blues historian and writer Jacques Demêtre, Dimitri lived in Paris and would be 101 years young today. Meeting him in 2010 literally changed my life, I traveled to see him as often as I could. I’ve written a blues song in his honor which we recorded in France & will be releasing soon! Love and miss you always ❤️❤️ dear cousin - your passion for the blues lives on!! 🎂🎶💙#jacquesdemetre #dimitrivicheney #happyheavenlybirthday #blueshistorian #blueswriter #soulbag #jazzhot #parisblues @soul_bag_mag
Hey y’all! Thrilled to let you know I’m featur Hey y’all! Thrilled to let you know I’m featured on a new single by Italian rap/hip-hop artist Bumo, a song we wrote called “NCPT”, and it’s out TODAY! 🎶🎤🇮🇹🔥 Che bello! 

3 years ago @bumo_1 and I released our first single, “Online”. It was a great success and he graciously asked if I’d collaborate on another song with him.

NCPT releases today on Bumo’s newest album, “Giano”, and available world-wide on Believe Music Italia. 

Am super excited about NCPT and can’t wait for you to hear! 🎶 ➡️ Link in bio
 
“NCPT” stands for ‘non c’è piu tempo’ (“there’s no more time” or “it’s too late”) and as in our first single, Bumo raps in Italian and I sing in English. 

Bumo hails from Genoa, in Liguria, and although I’m a New Yorker I recorded my vocal in France with @jeromebuigues, so our song has a real Euro-NYC vibe. 

& seriously, check out Bumo’s new album- he’s super talented and the album is great 🔥🔥

Enjoy! La musica è amore!

First photos from Montfort! Merci @lamethodesylvie First photos from Montfort! Merci @lamethodesylvie, Claudia & my love Tom for the pics! Music is love! ❤️🎶❤️ 

The groove was on 🔥🔥🔥 thanks to my amazing band - équipe au top @pierresibille, @jeromebuigues, Francois Gomez & Philippe Jardin, we were invited to debut a first-ever, brand new summer soirée at beautiful winery @cavescommandeur and WOW it was phenomenal! 

The rosé was flowing, Corsican & Italian food aplenty, and the sold-out crowd ready to dance with us! 

And it’s so moving to me, when we play somewhere new where many people are hearing our original music for the first time - when everyone starts singing along to Love Enough for a Lifetime or dancing to Wheels on a Train it’s so joyful! I’m moved to tears! 

Gratitude on high, thank you thank you for such a wonderful evening of music and love 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
