Combining the musical traditions of Brittany with jazz-inspired improvisation, virtuosic guitarist Jacques Pellen has brought a jazz sensibility to the music of his homeland. On his debut album, Celtic Procession, released in 1996, Pellen was accompanied by top-notch Breton jazz musicians, including Gildas Bocle, Eric Barrett, Peter Gritz, <a href="spotify:artist:2GIms8u3bruipn5MOR5wcs">Kenny Wheeler</a>, and the Molard brothers –- Jacky and Patrick. Recorded during a performance at the Tombees De La Nuit festival in Rennes, his second album, Las Tombees De La Nuit: Celtic Possession, featured a mixture of jazz musicians who played on his earlier recording and folk musicians including <a href="spotify:artist:1X05wFRysrSsg6xbavYBdU">Dan Ar Bras</a>.
