Belgian trombonist and composer Nabou Claerhout presents, with her new line‑up, a breathtaking set that moves effortlessly between vulnerable and powerful, raw and refined, dreamy and energetic. A sound world that pulls you in from the first note and refuses to let go.

N∆BOU is a quartet led by Belgian trombonist and composer Nabou Claerhout. After the albums 'Hubert' (2019) and 'You Know' (2021), the third album, 'Indigo', marks the start of a new artistic chapter. With a renewed line‑up - Trui Amerlinck (double bass), Gijs Idema (electric guitar) and Daniel Jonkers (drums) - the band opens up new perspectives. Claerhout’s personal, finely crafted compositions translate into music that is at once raw and refined, intimate and powerful.

The sound of Indigo moves fluidly between dreamlike atmospheres and playful, groove‑driven energy. Each track reinvents itself in form and texture. Claerhout’s trombone remains the guiding voice, enriched with subtle effects and short, almost ghostlike solo moments that bring vulnerability and strength together.

With 'Indigo', N∆BOU takes a confident step forward - an album that expands Claerhout’s musical universe to new listeners while preserving a recognisable, authentic voice.

In collaboration with Wilde Westen.
