FUNK IT UP !

About Me

After dreaming of that instrument for years as a child, I finally changed my flute for a saxophone at the age of 14. Since then, and while taking lessons at the Montreux Jazz School and at the EJMA Lausanne, here are some of my bands and projects :Rencontre du 3e type - instrumental hip-hop, Resolution - acid-jazz, Sismik Sound - acid-jazz, Subsonic Family - disco-funk, recordings with DJ Sir George, B-attitude - pop-funk.I'm currently playing with several non-professionnal bands : Just for Funk, Soul & Groove Corporate and Funk Mates.


Some places where I've been playing : Montreux Jazz Festival, Cully Jazz Festival, New Club Lavras (Brasil), MAD Lausanne, Amnesia Lausanne, Bypass Geneva, Gaskessel Bern, NED Montreux, Nuits du jazz Chernex, BalElec EPFL Lausanne, Grand Prix Walo Basel, Bleu Lezard Lausanne, Planet Club Villeneuve, festival BD Sierre, AniMai Vevey, CafArt Prilly, La Trappe Bex, Music Club Conthey ... and many others.
