The Maguire Twins article on France Musique
« Seeking Higher Ground » est l’aboutissement de ce que les Maguire Twinsont hérité des géants du jazz de Memphis et du reste de l’Amérique et du développement de leur propre son. Carl Seitaro Maguire et Alan Shutaro Maguire, jumeaux identiques de 21 ans, sont nés à Tokyo et ont grandi à Honk Kong en ayant étudié à la British International School.
À 14 ans, ils ont su qu’ils voulaient faire de la musique le centre de leurs vies. A 15 ans, ils déménagent dans la vibrante ville musicale de Memphis. Là, ils rejoignent la Stax Music Academy de renommée mondiale, y trouvent le jazz qui les attendait et rencontrent le saxophoniste Kirk Whalum qui était à ce moment-là artiste Stax en résidence. C’est aussi là qu’ils ont rencontré le pianiste Donald Brown, qui allait devenir leur professeur, mentor et producteur. A l’âge de 18 ans, ils enregistrent leur premier album “The Sound Of Music” avec Donald Brown comme producteur et Kirk Whalum en invité.
Les Maguire Twins sont en concert samedi 19 mai au Trezevant Bistro à Memphis pour la parution de leur deuxième album « Seeking Higher Ground » chez Three Tree Records, sur lequel ils accueillent Aaron Goldberg (piano), Bill Mobley (trompette) et Gregory Tardy (sax ténor).

The Aquarian Weekly featured The Maguire Twins.

Musical Twins
Meet The Maguire Twins — drummer Carl and bassist Alan, 22. They were born in Tokyo, raised in Hong Kong and now live in Memphis. Seeking Higher Ground (Three Tree Records) is their stateside debut and it couldn’t be more impressive. As produced by Donald Brown (who has been at the helm for all eight of sax man Kenny Garrett’s brilliant albums), the sound is extraordinary, filled to the brim with the kind of sudden stops and starts that would befuddle most musicians. Saxophonist Gregory Tardy, trumpeter Bill Mobley and pianist Aaron Goldberg take the kind of circuitous solos that always lead back to the main theme but go so far out on a ledge that you almost wonder how they’re going to get back. Drummer Carl takes Elvin Jones as his muse and you can hear it. He’s a syncopated fool, daring you to second-guess his thumps. With the kind of post-bop material that’s easy to listen to but hard to play, these twins have now officially joined the ranks of such historical jazz brother teams with names like Heath, Brecker, Marsalis, Farmer, Montgomery and Mangione. Welcome to the club, boys.
