Admit it: you thought an instrumental track couldn't hit you as hard as a song with killer lyrics. David Laborier is here to prove you dead wrong, and honestly, he does it with a pretty refreshing nerve. This Luxembourg-based guitarist drops "A Few Words", an instrumental track that cheekily messes with its own name since there isn't a single word in sight, and yet it speaks volumes. The guitar slides between contemporary jazz, fusion and pop-jazz with a disarming ease, weaving harmonies that grab you when you least expect it. There's something almost magical about it: you listen, you feel, you drift away, and you realize words would've added nothing at all. The music video, shot by Pieter Seyffert at Adventure Films, matches the sound perfectly: clean, polished, classy without being stiff. Over 250,000 views on the clock, and it honestly deserves way more. This is Riviera strongly recommends you get on it without wasting another second.
An artist who really knows what he's doing
Don't let the man's quiet cool fool you: David Laborier has a résumé that commands serious respect. A guitar teacher at the Conservatoire de la Ville de Luxembourg, he has been juggling live performance, composition, arranging and teaching for years with an ease that's almost unfair. He put his hands on arrangements for Angélique Kidjo, no less, on an album that walked away with a Grammy. His own projects are nothing to sneeze at either: nominations at the Independent Music Awards, a win at the International Songwriting Competition, the track record speaks for itself. With "A Few Words" still making its way around the world, it feels like the best chapter of this story might still be ahead. Keep both eyes on David Laborier, because the next surprise could land sooner than you think.
