In short! I was born in Chateauroux a lovely but boring city, in the center of France I have begun playing music at the age of 4 years old with the recorder, playing on everything on the radio (even pop songs). I did my first gig with the french folk band Malicorne.  At the age of 14 years old, I wish to extend my exploration of the Music and I entered at a classical music school as a oboe player. 6 years after I passed the exams for the National schools of Paris and Lyon.  This is in my late 24 that I’ve bought my first harmonica, completely hazardously. Almost straight away, I fell in love with this instrument who entertained myself from 4 years of hard oboe playing. A few months later, Jean-Jacques Milteau played in my town, and I’ve gone at his gig with my only harp in my pocket. I’ve to admit it, but I was a bit tipsy! At some stage, I’ve asked to play with him on stage, and ever since the end of the song I’ve been conscious of my mystake and having been so ridiculous in front of this master. I’ve apologized to him, and surprisingly this great man, made a proposition to give me some tips in Paris. And it was the beginning of my passion for this instrument, but in the same time, feeling strange about this ridiculous piece of wood.
