Info for I Wish You Love

Jessie and Enric met in 2018, introduced by their dear friend Gas Fernandez from Big Mama Swing Madrid. They have recorded and toured together through Spain and now they would like to make some small gesture of thanks to Gas and Big Mama Swing for bringing them together. Without venues like Big Mama collaborations like ours wouldn’t be possible. So for the dancers, the teachers, the listeners, the supporters of swing music; we dedicate this to you. In times like this, small businesses are under huge strain, and we would love to be able to do our part to support our dear friends. We have been lucky to be supported by a very generous swing dancing community and now we want to pay it back in some small way. So for the next three months all proceeds from the sale of this EP will go directly to Big Mama Swing Madrid. We are grateful for everything you do.

Enric Peidro
A self taught musician,Peidro began playing tenor at the age of fourteen. A couple of years later he started playing on several blues and rhythm and blues bands. His interest in Jazz developed quickly and since then, Peidro has remained loyal to his musical heros: jazz masters like Leon "Chu" Berry, Ben Webster, Don Byas, Coleman Hawkins Benny Carte and Lester Young as well as some of their first disciples, like Paul Gonsalves, illinois Jacquet, Zoot Sims, Charlie Ventura, Flip Phillips,Arnett Cobb, Buddy Tate or Al Cohn among many others.

Although Peidro's sound and phrasing are deeply rooted in the swing-era, his approach is so natural and genuine that he has achieved great popularity, being aknowledged as a real “keeper of the flame” among the classic jazz lovers all over Spain. Often labeled in the past as an “outsider", a “rara avis” or “an stylist swinmming against the current” by some jazz writers, he's been at the same time always regarded in high esteem by the jazz media (critics, magazines etc) wich have always appreciated his honest, genuine and unpretentious approach and invariably have pointed out the richness of his tenor sound and his knowledge of the classic jazz idiom.

In the later years, he works mainly as a leader with two main units under his name: a quartet consisting on him plus a rhythm section as well as with a six-piece band (often augmented to 7 or 8 pieces) wich under the name of Enric Peidro Swingtet has become increasingly popular in the Jazz scene not only in Spain but also in Europe, touring quite a lot and delivering some swingin' jazz to the audiences everywhere. As a leader he has recorded 16 Cds under his own name with several different units and as a sideman his recorded work goes up to 35 Cds at last count.

Beside his projects as a leader, he loves to play in other bands either as a sideman or sharing the leadership duties with other musicians. Currently he co-leads a quintet with intertational sax player and entertainer Ray Gelato wich whom he tours quite often. Together they have released one album entitled "With all due respect". In the spring of 2022 the new album of The Ray Gelato- Enric Peidro Quintet: "Live at the Polisonic" will be released. A live recording from a concert that took place in August 2020.

Also, he frecuently tours with world class trombone player Dan Barrett, whith whom he also co-leads a quintet that in 2018 released their first cd (And the angels swing/Snibor records)wich was more than well received, getting very good reviews by the jazz media, wich was followed by a second release (It goes without saying/Snibor records) and very soon a new album will be in the market (What a wonderful world / Snibor records) wich proves the extraordinary health of the musical relationship in between Barrett and Peidro.

A particularlly interesting unit wich also features Peidro its the "International Classic Jazz All Stars" wich include among others musiciams australian bass player and vocalist Nicki Parrott, french drummerGuillaume Nouaux or London based piano man Richard Busiakiewicz. Other musicians with whom Peidro ocasionally teams up include vocalists Rebecca Kilgore and Jessie Gordon,drummers Michael Keul and Eddie Metz Jr or vibraphonists Martin Breinschmid and Arturo Serra to name just a few

Always a hard worker, Peidro's schedule keeps him busy most of the year and as he has done for the last 20 years he keeps relentelessly exploring the legacy of the masters of tenor sax he admires, trying to find his personal voice within that musical language and delivering swinging, creative and imaginative music to audiences wordlwide
