WHO ARE WE?

Summer 1990, age 14, he wrote his first songs with a neighbor. This little acoustic duo soon grew into a R.E.M.-influenced electric pop-rock combo called BAOBAB, in which he composed and played lead guitar. A few years later, the original duo dismantled to form LE CLAN DES M’AS-TU VU. Now playing bass, he adapted his new guitar compositions for 2 basses, and in parallel set up FLYING TEAPOTS, a noisy pop trio consisting of 2 basses plus drums. He developed a rhythmic bass playing style based on chords and arpeggios, replacing guitar tunes. In 2002, he adopted the same formula with CHICK PEAS, a noisy rock band mostly influenced by Shellac and Fugazi. The band enjoyed good reputation, both locally and nationally, playing all over France, touring Europe and opening for The Datsuns. In the meantime, he was playing drums with FUTUR 2000. In 2010, he joined OUT TO LUNCH, a punk rock band, on bass, and opened for Jello Biaffra. He kept playing bass in T.T.TWISTERZ, a rock trio with whom he recorded 3 albums. He soon realised he missed guitar playing and compositions were piling up. In 2017, he decided to form a Sebadoh-influenced band with T.T.TWISTERZ drummer Antoine Charnay, in which he could play his indie rock compositions from both sides, on bass as well as guitar. He soon met the right composer and sidekick who would know how to top his game.
