Info for À l'automne

Gérald Toto's new EP is in the continuity of "Sway", a gesture of comfort, "irresistibly soothing" (Le Monde). An ode in the fall that draws on all the interbreeding. He plays with finesse of guitar, bass and percussion (udu). The voice is master, sings in Creole, English and in its imaginary language. With the help of his cellist Clément Petit, he continues to reinvent himself gently.

This title highlights the painful observation of the beginnings of an inexorable break-up.

Gerald Toto

Gérald Toto
is one of the distinctive voices of the iconic panafrican band Toto Bona Lokua (formed with his friends Richard Bona and Lokua Kanza). The trio have so far released two acclaimed albums, alongside a successful world tour. With Sway, Gérald has reinvented himself to offer a spiritual journey, recorded alone in his home studio. Describing ‘Sway’ as his ‘true debut album’, Toto has found his own path, guiding listeners along with beautiful vocals in intimate settlings, almost as if whispering to each of us. Gérald’s musical influences charm easily – pop romance, blues, jazz, samba, eastern/mandingo melodies and Caribbean percussion. He sings freely in his imaginary language, the one of the heart. Sway is the sound of an accomplished artist going to basics, having fun and taking us all along for the ride.

This album contains no booklet.
