Eric Mimosa

Eric Mimosa is a French guitarist and improviser whose projects include electroacoustic encounters and chamber-sized collaborations. He has worked with trombonist and Balinese metallophone player Claude Colpaert and with guitarist Christian Vasseur.

On Les Sans-Ombre (CS831), Mimosa and Vasseur perform together on archtop acoustic guitars, exploring the instruments through nine freely improvised pieces. Recorded in France in 2022 and released by Creative Sources in 2024, the album focuses on intertwining gestures, unusual articulations and rapidly changing musical relationships. Rather than assigning conventional lead and accompanying roles, the two guitarists create a shared field of resonance and rhythmic detail.
