David Walter’s activities kept him away from the musical studios for several years. He spent 5 years travelling the world for “Les Nouveaux Explorateurs”, the French TV channel, Canal+, to meet the gatekeepers to the musical hearts of Africa, South America & Asia. These rewarding experiences gave David time to digest what he’d experienced. Now David Walters has chosen a path of writing and performing.
In January 2020 David came back to releasing music with Soleil Kréyol, a great Creole Soul album produced by Patchworks, the prolific producer from Lyon (aka Mr President, Voilaaa, Da Break...). On Soleil Kréyol David Walters achieved the impossible - evoking such disparate worlds as New York’s ‘70s club culture and his own familial Afro-Caribbean roots, singing much of the album in Martinican Creole, against a shimmering, percussive soundtrack.
One year after Soleil Kréyol, David Walters now releases Nocturne. An acoustic album recorded alongside a trio of master musicians: the renowned Malian kora musician Ballaké Sissoko, French cellist/bassist Vincent Segal who also appeared on Walters's “Soleil Kréyol” and veteran percussionist, Roger Raspail, who through his four decades has performed genres as diverse Congolese funk, gnawa music from the Sahel and Jazz.
Nocturne is a far more meditative and melancholic project, a journey in chiaroscuro led with a delicate sweetness.
