Trio Chevallier / Boisseau / Lavergne
ReSet
David Chevallier : hybrid guitar, Usine
Sébastien Boisseau : double bass
Christophe Lavergne : drums
10 years,
Over 100 concerts in France and Europe
2 critically acclaimed albums.
In 2023, with "ReSet", the trio wishes to open a new chapter to begin a second decade of shared music.
Relying on the experience accumulated over the years and tours, exploiting the strong interaction between the three musicians, the reflexes and the common intuition that have become second nature, David Chevallier composes a new repertoire, sometimes airy, sometimes complex, with the aim of building an exciting playground for the protagonists, captivating for the listener.
ReSet also makes use of computer technology, since a real work of interaction with the software "Usine" is implemented. This fourth virtual member of the group multiplies the possibilities of the trio, always with musicality.

"More than just a jazz folk album, David Chevallier explores a whole new world here, creating superb landscapes with daring lines of rare elegance and incredibly fluid phrasing, all in a skilful fusion of writing and improvisation.
There's air, immense poetry and an undeniable lyricism in this deeply organic music, performed with telepathic interaction".
Felix Marciano - Jazz Magazine
David Chevallier is in constant interaction with his rhythm: this is a particularly effective acoustic trio.
Claude Loxhay - Jazz Halo
The rigour of the writing, precise but never imposing, coupled with the care given to the arrangements make this combination a stimulating roadmap. The trio engages in it with ease and even enriches it with an immediately perceptible pleasure in playing.

Standards & Avatars
David Chevallier : electric guitar
Sébastien Boisseau : acoustic bass
Christophe Lavergne : drums
These avatars are much more than an appropriation: they are a brilliant way of putting into perspective the guiding line of a musician we did not necessarily expect in this field. David Chevallier's new tour de force is to create the unexpected on the beaten track.
Franpi Barriaux - Citizen Jazz
"Once in a while you stumble across an album that not only did you not have any preconceived ideas about but you didn’t actually know about at all, which then turns out to be an absolute gem! This is one of those rare instances. A really great album that ought to be more widely heard, containing some great music from a fresh perspective."
