ThouxAzun
Guillaume Lopez (known for the duo Brotto-Lopez) and Clément Rousse, a rising star on the diatonic accordion, join forces for an exciting musical adventure. They finally bring us their long-awaited debut album, deeply rooted in the landscapes that shaped them: Thoux, a charming village in the Gers (Occitania) and Val d’Azun, a breathtaking paradise in the Pyrenees. Their music blends powerful rhythms, rich harmonies and multilingual storytelling (Occitan, French, Spanish) to create high-energy folk dances infused with poetic and socially engaged lyrics.
