Jacques Menache

Jacques Menache is a Mexican guitar player, a true progressive rock follower. After being part of several bands, he decides to take on an independent project, based on his own compositions. To do so, he gathers together a group of talented musicians, which, with strong enthusiasm and creativeness, collaborate restlessly for its realization. As result, "Cenizas" is born, presented as a concept album, divided in 15 tracks, being 5 out of them purely instrumental. While listening to the melodies, a blend of progressive rock and classic music is well appreciated, as the lyrics to the songs talk about topics such as racism, intolerance and social ambiguities. On this musical masterpiece, a contemporaneous togetherness between the electronic instruments and the acoustic ones such as sax, violin and cello could be listened to, closing the circle with powerful and expressive female vocals. JACQUES MENACHE is a very proposing artist that manages to retake and renew progressive rock genre from where it's been left from by other great bands within Mexico and onwards many other Latin American countries.
