QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (full bio on my blog)
Q: What do you do?
A: I’m a singer-songwriter and performer. Guitar is my main instrument.
Q: What kind of guitar do you play?
A: I’m left-handed. I have a hand-made Spanish classical guitar and a Fender Stratocaster. I really dig that sound, that touch.
Q: Do you play any other instruments besides guitar?
A: Yeah. I also play piano, drums, percussions, anything that makes a sound is cool…I love electronic music. Beats. I believe when you connect with music it’s between you and the sound no matter what tool you’re using.
Q: Where are you from?
A: My real name is Pierre. I grew up in France in the eighties. I’m from a small town in the north of France. Not far from Paris, very close to Belgium. It often gets cold and rainy. But the people are warm.
Q: Where do you live currently?
A: I live in Los Angeles. On the east side.
Q: What is your most recent project?
A: I recorded the cryosleEP in the summer of 2008. It was released June, 1st 2009 on iTunes and most digital stores. I collaborated with producer Alcendor on the project. It is a fresh and meditative experience entirely conceived in space. Such a beautiful sound.
Q: What is your current project?
A: I’m working on my first full-length album. I wrote acoustic songs while I was in France earlier this year (2009). I recorded the original tracks there. I will either release an acoustic EP of those songs or include them in my debut album.
I want the first LP to somehow reflect all the places I’ve been musically and embrace the moment at the same time. I’m planning on having it released by February 21st, 2010. It’s my birthday ;-)
Q: How do you approach songwriting?
A: I try as much as I can to translate my personal experience into something that anyone can relate. I like to express myself in the most stripped down and authentic way possible. Also ultimately if I can benefit someone with a song then I feel like the work is done.
Q: What message do you want to convey through your music?
A: Life in itself. There is a way for all of us to improve our mental state, become freer and happier. So whenever I find little treasures I try not to keep them all to myself.
