Riyel

Riyel's debut CD will be released internationally on Summit Records in early March 2010. Summit's library is exclusively distributed by Allegro Corporation. Due to the unique nature of Riyel's brand of jazz, Allegro Corp. & Summit Records will also likely be collaborating with a major distributor in the French Caribbean, thus making the "Kreyol" CD widely available in Martinique, Guadeloupe, Dominica, French Guyana, St. Lucia, Aruba, Haiti, etc... Despite the added distribution to these key territories, this title will always remain a Summit release. BRIEF BIOGRAPHY: Born of a long-running musical relationship & friendship that developed during their still-active tenure with Haitian supergroup Tabou Combo, trumpeter Ken Watters, bassist Yves Abel & trombonist / vocalist Andre Atkins formed the Caribbean / Roots inspired jazz ensemble RIYEL (pronounced ree-YELL, meaning “backstreet” or “alley” in Haitian Creole) roughly a year ago. ANDRE ATKINS is truly an original voice in th emodern trombone world, an extraordinary composer and a powerful vocalist (as he demonstartes on our rendition of the Hector Lavoe classic "Aguanile"). YVES ABEL (“The Fridge”) has earned his reputation many times over as a premier bassist, composer, producer & an overall creative force in the Caribbean music world
