about
Guitarist-composer and arranger originally from the Savoie region of France, he started music at the age of 5, playing the alto-saxophone at the Aix-Les-Bains Conservatoire. By the age of 12, teaching himself, he started the guitar which became his instrument of predilection and continued his musical training at the AIMRA Jazz school in Lyon. From the age of 13 he started composing his own pieces and rapidly built himself up his own home studio, which is where he has recorded nearly every part of all his albums. He left for Paris, and Nice (French Riviera) where he performed for many years before settling down around Paris. Composer and multi-instrumentalist, from very early on he became interested in the purely expressive function of music, implying all different kinds of musical styles. Beyond his background as an onstage guitarist, and whilst better known for his diverse international collaborations and his own jazz-rock albums, he has also composed many Pop-Rock numbers for singers, notably "(A) PART OF US" with Carol D (alias Carol Dreant / singer-songwriter); but also many instrumental and orchestral pieces for use in cinema or to accompany images.
