Stranded Horse is the solo project of the french musician Yann Tambour. Before that, he was the lead singer and musician of “Encre” where we could appreciate how his folk roots mixed with electronic-experimental sounds.
Now, Stranded Horse has made him forgetting a bit the loops and samples of his electronic period and he has focused on pure folk. He plays the Kora, an african stringed folk instrument whose sound is a symbiosis of a guitar and a harp. Of course he plays the guitar as well. His voice is warm, sensible, calm.
I recommend you to lay down on your bed, turn up the volume and simply listen to this theme without thinking of anything else.Then please, get up and watch the video. It is worthwhile to see the incredible coordination of his fingers touching this kind of harp. And at the same time he is not only singing, but interpreting.
We will see our faces again Blogotheque. You are terrific.
Judge yourself and enjoy the tune.
