Formed by jazz, transfigured by hip-hop, fed by soul and funk, Saintard created his unique RnB. A hybrid, thanks to all those diverging styles. His new EP has to be experienced as a lyrical journey.
Born in Paris, he learnt to play the saxophone in a district music school. The instrument soon became a fundamental part of his music. Swiftly, Saintard emancipated himself from academia, tried to play the piano, to compose and construct his first pieces with his producer friend Monomite. He soon collaborated on many projects as a saxophonist, composer and producer with the rapper Prince Waly, the band Feu! Chatterton and Enchantée Julia.
At once influenced by Gil Scott-Heron, Sly and the Family Stone, Chucho Valdés, Prince and Kenny Garrett; Saintard paved his way to create his own signature. In London, he discovered English soul and the organic mix of textural sounds. Under the sun of Ibiza and Barcelona, he added warm colors to his musical palette. With a potent mix of nonchalance and groove, his beat swings between Tom Misch and Henri Salvador.
One can hear on certain tracks his half sung, half spoken voice in his mother tongue. Humorous and self-deprecating, his music depicts the real of the ordinary, drawing pictures of a trivial everyday life.
