Harmonica player Olivier Ker Ourio draws on a rich blend of three musical cultures: Réunion Island, where he was born; the musical world of the great Marcel Azzola; and European jazz, shaped by artists such as Didier Lockwood, Michel Legrand, André Ceccarelli, Sylvain Luc and Philip Catherine. He is widely regarded as the true heir to Toots Thielemans.
His new project, Life as it is, puts the harmonica and guitar centre stage, weaving together sun-drenched, lyrical melodies inspired by the Caribbean, the Indian Ocean and Brazil.
Like the places that inspire it, this music is open, vibrant and warm. It gives each musician room to shine and fully explores the dynamic possibilities of the quartet, while always putting emotion first and aiming straight for the heart.

L’harmoniciste Olivier Ker Ourio baigne dans une triple culture musicale: la Réunion, son île natale, l’univers du grand Marcel Azzola, et le jazz européen (Didier Lockwood, Michel Legrand, André Ceccarelli, Sylvain Luc, Philip Catherine). Il est considéré comme le seul vrai successeur de Toots Thielemans. Son nouveau projet, Life as it is, met l’harmonica et la guitare à l’honneur à travers des mélodies ensoleillées et lyriques inspirées des Caraïbes, de l’Océan Indien et du Brésil. À l’image des territoires qui l’inspirent, cette musique est ouverte, vibrante et chaleureuse. Elle met en valeur chaque participant et explore pleinement les dynamiques du quartet, tout en privilégiant l’émotion et le «droit au cœur». Latino/Jazz
