TAPPED BY JOHN McLAUGHLIN AS THE NEXT JACO
Pastorius, Frenchman Hadrien Feraud is making a name
for himself. With his knack for calling upon a bewildering
array of voices and effects inspired by all manner of
instrumentalists—particularly keyboardists—Feraud is
no mere disciple. Combining rapid Jaco-esque 16th-note
runs, expressive fretless slides, and sonic landscapes and
textures reminiscent of fellow countryman Jean Michel
Jarre, Feraud’s music is a unique style of chilled out,
smooth-sounding jazz fusion. Hadrien made his first
major concert appearance just five years ago before
going on to win the French national contest Haut les
Basses. With a breakthrough performance on McLaughlin’s
Industrial Zen, which features the tribute “For
Jaco,” the 22-year-old Feraud will release his solo debut,
this spring.
