« The shortest path to go from one point to another is not a straight line, but a dream. »
Malian proverb
These three musicians fell into the cooking pot of World music a long time ago, and emerged electrified, imbued with voices and rhythms from all horizons.
Cinq Oreilles, (“Five ears” in French and yes, they are three) is a mountain in Galicia, an oasis in Ethiopia, a trip to Sicily, a dive in Japan, a ride in Mongolia …… and yet always maintaining a rock fusion .
Cultivating the art of fragile balances and explosive arrangements, the trio weaves a sound, a taut thread, from Ouralski’s factories to the Baton Rouge bayous; the unexpected around the corner.
Languages ring, instruments crack, rhythms overlap. It’s an invitation to dance. Moving your body is irresistible!
From country to country. we savour the tastes of other cultures…
We are witnessing a phenomenon of transportation, worthy of the greatest science fiction stories. Tucked away in a profusion of influences, and public ventures, borders are abolished. Cinq Oreilles mixes languages, shakes up grooves and traditions, all of this without any papers, without a visa and, in these modern times,
it feels good, it feels good…

Biography
Florian Triby : Drums , Vocals
_____
From a very early age lulled by the dulcet tones of his mother’s sweet voice and the buzzing timbre of his hurdy-gurdy playing father, he was quickly inspired to play the drums.
Emmanuel Bourgeois : Guitar, vocals
_____
The Y2K’s bug inevitably steered him towards music and collective adventure.With ten years of keyboard, guitar and vocals behind him, Manu landed in the Tarn, south of France. Establishing a common language with native musicians, he is the Guitariste Tout Terrain (GTT) in Cinq Oreilles.
Catherine Gentilini : Accordion, vocals
_____
After too long years of working in a white collar career, Cathon rediscovered and ignited her passion for singing, music and stage. From rock to chanson française, from guitar to accordion, always in pursuit of new horizons leads her to search songs from all over the world, always on the lookout for singularity…
All three musicians are curious, sonically snooping and digging around , each pushing their own specialty , together crafting a unique sound . Ready to change the mood radically between two stopovers, they never lose their identity and yet do not parody anything..
In their journey around the world, they never forget that they are Cinq Oreilles.
