Return of the Trickster


Ridiculously dressed up, here he comes.
The children look at him askance.
He shows up when the world is in a mess.
In other words, nothing fragile happens.

Return of the Trickster.
No one wanted it to happen, but.

All of its statements are revolutionary and desperate.
You see what I mean?
People get confused and start running in the wrong direction.

Return of the Trickster.
Give me back my peaceful days.

Not only my house, but everything in the world needs maintenance.
We should stop and think about what we really need to do.

That's the kind of trick that makes doves pop out of silk hats.
There have been and will be others like him.
Unfortunately, history repeats itself.

Return of the Trickster.
No one wanted it to happen, but.

Return of the Trickster.
Give me back my peaceful days.

I'm making songs at midnight in my room. I play acoustic guitars, synthesizers, and I sing.

Songs from the edge of somewhere.
You don’t know if you’re walking into a protest, a party, or a funeral.
Bluesy, soulful rock’n’roll.
Haunted, deep and raw. 
The kind of raw you can’t fake.

“You don’t sound like anyone else,” said Danny Thompson - legendary bassist for Nick Drake and Joe Strummer - about English producer Conil.

Tchad Blake, sonic architect for Tom Waits and Elvis Costello, agreed: “Strange Part of the Country is an amazing album. I still listen to it.”

Fleetwood Mac’s Peter Green was also a fan, making a rare visit to Conil’s studio to record a mellow take on “Woke Up Around Midnight,” his smoky tribute to the jazz greats.

Conil’s distinct sound has drawn praise from Marc Ribot, Davey Graham, Pino Palladino, and John Leckie - artists and producers known for recognising the real thing when they hear it.

Upon release, Strange Part of the Country made quiet but lasting waves. Q Magazine gave it four stars and a Q Recommends stamp. Blues Matters Magazine put Conil on the cover, calling him “one of the most original artists out there.” In the U.S., “Years Between” climbed to number three on the Alternative Radio Chart.

Raised in England on the Rolling Stones, the Velvet Underground, and Tom Waits, Conil later lived in some of the world’s most musically charged cities - New Orleans, New York, Chicago, Austin and Berlin - chasing sound wherever he went.

That began early. He travelled far, met the Dalai Lama, climbed Kilimanjaro, and crossed the Himalayas - experiences that shaped his perspective and his music.

He is now finishing his long-awaited second album - recorded in New Orleans, Chicago, London and Greece - with Danny Thompson, Tchad Blake and more.

Ciao! I am a bass, double bass and guitar player but I like composing on keyboards too. 
Thank you for listening. Peace!

Poetry is not an obsession but a vocation. It's a river you jump into as soon as you're called, and you spend your life floating with the current.  JIM HARRISON ( 1937 - 2016 )
La poésie n'est pas une obsession mais une vocation. C'est une rivière dans laquelle tu sautes dès qu'on t'y appelle et tu passes ta vie à flotter au gré du courant. JIM HARRISON ( 1937 - 2016 )
