LAURENT SALZARD

Myspace Layouts - Image Hosting - ForumsBorn on France's Atlantic West Coast and raised in La Rochelle, I fell in love with music in High School, specially attracted by the bass guitar. Being self taught for the first couple years of my learning, I decided to move to Paris in order to learn and practice music more seriously and to get immersed into a more dense musical environment. The "real thing"!
I studied for one year at the CIM jazz school then began playing around as much as I could with as different people as I could. In 2007, I did an audition and won a scholarship that allowed me to go and study at Berklee College of Music in Boston, where I spent one year and learned a lot! I was fortunate to study with teachers like Matt Garrison, Bruce Gertz, Aruan Ortiz, Eguie castrillo, Dave Fiuckzynski...
I have shared the stage with: Nourou, Kankele, Ojan Septet, Nu-Tone, Nguyen Le, Fuze, Eguie Castrillo, Aruan Ortiz, Denzal Sinclaire, Claude Diallo Situation, Edouard Brenneisen, Cedric Hanriot, Serghio Jansen, Mohammed Kalifa Kamara, Tim Mayer...
