Commander Spoon embodies everything captivating about the New Wave of Belgian Jazz.

Commander Spoon is used to drawing Jazz that is anything but by the book colouring outside the lines in stinging movements. After their vibrant first album, they are back to present a new collaborative piece called « Flock ». For this joyful musical assemblage, they gathered other thriving artists around them including Tristan, Shungu, Esinam, and many others.Commander Spoon is used to drawing Jazz that is anything but by the book colouring outside the lines in stinging movements. After their vibrant first album, they are back to present a new collaborative piece called « Flock ». For this joyful musical assemblage, they gathered other thriving artists around them including Tristan, Shungu, Esinam, and many others.

The foursome consists of saxophonist Pierre Spataro, guitarist Florent Jeunieaux, bassist Fil Caporali and drummer Samy Wallens. They made several EP together and an LP called « Spooning » in which they interlace their eclectic wealth of influences into an energetic sound, respectfully demolishing walls between genres. You may also have seen them separately on stage or in the studio with various artists such as Roméo Elvis, Reinel Bakole or Echt!
