But who hides under this name of Millenium Trio which one could believe linked to literature or cinema…?Millenium Trio is in fact the meeting of three remarkable musicians: guitarist Yannick Robert, drummer Franck Agulhon and bassist Benoit Vanderstraeten. Once you have been told this, you immediately understand that musical poetry will be there, which is indeed the case on this album, recorded visibly in the style of a "live", which gives a most pleasing result.

I have always known Yannick Robert as being a discreet guitarist, never looking for great effects, but with the right note and poetic writing, working like an artisan who calls his work into question 1,000 times, to keep only the best. And “Millenium”, more than his other albums, is the culmination of a journey that began with his “Soul Cages Trio” (*). On this opus, Yannick Robert and his two accomplices work wonders. It's a real pleasure to listen to this album, as always with Yannick Robert. It's an album that speaks to our feelings and is for everyone!

We are of course waiting with great impatience to discover this trio on stage, but in the meantime, “Millenium” is our great “Coup de coeur” which will be available on May 4, 2018. An album which appears on the Alien Beats Records label and which will be distributed by Incredible.And icing on the cake, a concert for the release of this album is scheduled for June 28 at Sunset, in Paris!
