*** Résumé en anglais seulement ***
Since the release of his debut album Water in 2010, vocalist and songwriter Gregory Porter has been a force to be reckoned with. His very personal blend of jazz, gospel, blues and soul has drawn in fans from around the globe, particularly with the release of his Grammy Award winning third album Liquid Spirit in 2013 and his hugely successful new album Take Me To The Alley. This concert, filmed at the Philharmonie Berlin on the May 18th, 2016, captures Gregory Porter and his superb band performing tracks from across his career. With minimal staging, simple lighting and the audience on all sides, the focus is totally on the music allowing Gregory Porter s sublime voice to bring out the light and shade in his songs. This is an absolute treat for any Gregory Porter fan.
