Born November 6, 1969 in the Paris region. He began singing and expressing music at a very young age on his parents’ old singing guide. The choice of drums came to him at the age of 9. From then on he led a dual activity as composer and percussionist. As a teenager he entered the percussion class of the CNR of Rueil-Malmaison and took lessons from François Bedel and Gaston Sylvestre. Diligently practicing open-mindedness, he expresses himself in the very diverse fields of improvised, traditional, experimental music but also song and live performance.

For around thirty years he has collaborated, toured, played or recorded with artists, groups or companies (selective list) such as Jean-Christophe Cholet, Babick Reinhardt, L’ensemble Steckar Tubapack, Thierry “titi” Robin, Giovanni Mirabassi , the Ténarèze group, the Mezzanine theater, the Esquif theater, the contemporary circus company Feria Musica and many others.

At the same time, he has always directed his own training and projects including the quintet Toile Métisse (1995-2000). The trio “Parallel Résonnances” with Laurent Bronner on piano and Raphaël François on piccolo bass (2010). The trio MANEGE(s) with Alexandre Saada (piano) and Martial Bort (guitars), album “Manège(s)” released in 2017 by Promiseland / socadisc.

Today with the ORPHA project and a quartet with accordionist Didier Ithursarry “L’oeil des aieux”, he continues his incessant musical wanderings.
