Guy Cabay

Belgian jazz musician (composer, singer and multi-instrumentalist), born 1950 in Polleur. Guy Cabay is a unique personality on the Belgian scene. He plays jazz vibes and also sings his own songs, with a jazz influence and a definite Brazilian touch...but in a Walloon dialect. Strangely enough, the accents of his poetic lyrics, combined with his soft toned voice, remind of the sound of the great masters of the Brazilian bossa nova, and the inflexions of his Walloon texts show unexpected similarities with the sounds of Brazilian Portugese !
