A hybrid child of Nature and the City, Papillon (a.k.a. the PeanutButterFly) is a Caribbean American poet, musician and song-writer from Paris, France.Raised with a very culturally diverse environment and brought up in a world of entertainment, this multi-media artist has been an actor and musician since the early age of 12. After a first solo album called “the Amber Dawn” he is returning with “Calligraphy”, a well refined double vinyl album tracing his many travels to, from and within the ButterSide. The album is anchored in the will to collaborate and compose a new reality with artists and influences from around the World.Guest Musicians:3: Brice Louis - saxophone & flute Manuel Galaret - rhythm guitar5: Cyrille Daumont - gwo ka8: Ayinde Ananda - djembe10: Titos Sompa - sanza Doumbia - kamal ngoni13: Zeo Perea - keyboards15: Brice Louis - saxophone & tablaAll other instruments played by PapillonGuest Vocalists:3: Jamall Bufford ,Mariama Camara4: Mike Wird5: Daz-Ini , Kinesis7: Mike Wird9: Amp Fiddler 10: Antandou Lougue, Habib Marone, Nixon Omollo, FadjAfrica, Doumbia11: Mike Wird13: Meimouna Coffi14: Nemma15: Ras Tone I, David Walters 16: John Banzai , 2Y’S, Mike Wird17: NemmaSpecial appearances by Souleyman & Amani RibierNarration on “In Winged Words” by Lord Theodore Tellonton Tracks 9 & 14: Produced by Gyl GadiffertAll other tracks were produced by the PeanutButterFlyRecorded in France, Mali, Senegal & the U.S. with the ButterSide Studio.Mixed by Papillon & Gyl GadiffertMastered by Eric Wojahn, Solid SoundPhotos & Artwork by PapillonSpecial thanks to Time and Space for giving so much of themselves to complete this project.Blessed Love to Family for the immense support.
