Indigo
Indigo, the third quartet album from Belgian trombonist and composer Nabou Claerhout, marks a striking new phase in her creative evolution.
Following Hubert (2019) and You Know (2021), Nabou Claerhout presents a refreshed Nabou line-up with Trui Amerlinck (double bass), Gijs Idema (electric guitar) and Daniel Jonkers (drums). The album explores change, renewal and shifting human connections, building on the strong foundations Nabou has established in Belgium and the Netherlands while signalling Claerhout's growing international reach.
It is an album of metamorphosis: new collaborators, new perspectives, and deeply personal compositions transformed into music that feels raw yet refined, intimate yet powerful.The soundworld of Indigo moves between dreamy atmospheres and melancholic resonance, from lyrical, contemplative passages to playful, groove-driven energy. Haunting tributes such as "Light Blue Shawl (for Stijn)" and "Consent (for Stijn)" sit alongside the structural suite of "Ruin and Redemption", "Lost Soul" and "Consent", each piece reimagining itself through form and texture.
Claerhout's trombone remains the guiding force, shaped by subtle effects and ghostlike solo interludes that thread fragility, weight and release into the music. With its balance of intimacy and power, Indigo signals a bold step forward - an album that opens Claerhout's music to new audiences with a compelling and resonant voice.
