Chet Nuneta

"The joyful and messy fanfare of the global village : customs are afraid. The band boards towards Pangea, second transcontinental album where polyphonies reign over Arabians, Moldavians, Sephardic or Ural’s imaginations. Here we sing about pygmies helplessness facing deforestation, or about the treachery of Creole rum ! It’s done with a virtuosity that excludes any orthodoxy. Chet Nuneta has seized the beauty of tradition by its hair, and takes it for a walk in the kingdom of fantasy, where popular and nomad words cross each other, enrich each other, but never betray themselves." - Christian Larrède - LES INROCKUPTIBLES

"A good opportunity to discover, live, the very beautiful work, polyphonic and rhythmic, of their latest album, the bewitching “PANGEA”. It anchors with joy and melancholia, exotic vocal traditions (napolitan farandole, Pygmy blues, tribal or Japanese chants) in lyrical and wild imaginary landscapes." - Anne Berthod - TELERAMA Sortir

"When the three mermaids begin their strange polyphonies, we need to catch hold of the mast not to succumb to these vocal succubus and to these rhythms that sway between exotic traditions to electro creations." - LYLO

"A song from Bulgaria, another from Cap-Vert, a Mexican lament, a nursery rhyme in Hebrew… for the French group Chet Nuneta, singing is all about picking up influences gleaned from their meetings and travels. The title of their first and seductive album sums up their approach perfectly. ‘Ailleurs’ offers a choice of popular traditional songs that have either been faithfully recreated or completely reworked." - Patrick Labesse - LE MONDE

"Through a physical, spiritual and intellectual journey strewn with musical gems, Chet Nuneta revisit national hits and risky ritornellos, borrowing from a heritage of tales, myths, allusions and everyday life. Far from being mere mimicry these musical mutants integrate other cultures in order to honour them and such a  musical adventure throws up wonderful surprises. Skipping over the pitfalls that such a project could entail, Chet Nuneta offer a repertoire full of life, laughter and drama. Proof enough that respecting tradition can also mean beautifully breaking the barriers... " - Anne-Laure Lemancel –MONDOMIX
