Founded at the end of 2018, Rouge is an atmospheric, ultra-sensitive French jazz trio featuring pianist Madeleine Cazenave, double bass player Sylvain Didou, and drummer Boris Louvet. The group carves out a distinct space in the contemporary jazz landscape by integrating classical traditions, contemporary electro-pop, and pop-folk into a cohesive, organic ensemble sound. After being selected for the Jazz Migration program in 2020, they released their debut album, Derrière les paupières. Their second album on Label Bleu, Vermeilles, showcases their evolving acoustic discourse, rich collective arrangements with subtle electronics, and an evocative composition style featuring guest vocals by British folk-singer Kate Stables.
