As a Pianist, song writer composer and singer, Meddy Gerville is like a fresh summer breeze in a music world of rare exceptions. He is an exotic gem that has yet to be savored sufficiently by all music listeners，yet he has been electrifying audiences the world over with his intricate and compelling synthesis of Jazz and Maloya, indigenous music of his native Reunion Island, for almost a decade. Meddy’s voice has been compared to Milton Nascimento and AlJarreau, but these comparisons fail to capture the unique timbre and rhythm intensity of his soulful and nuanced vocal approach. Likewise, his extraordinary compositional, pianistic and improvisational prowess is peerless in its conception and execution, all amply demonstrated on all his albums, his seventh release worldwide, Fokronmlavi.
