Bijou
Bijou's music is a reflection of his childhood and life experience. Son of a Sephardic immigrant and a nomadic father, his home life was anything but conventional. He lived in various homes around northern California before settling in the small town of Mendocino, outside the radar of mainstream society. For most of his life he lived in a barn with no indoor plumbing and infrequent parents, yet he was still taught to be an individual and find his own path in life. His parents eventual divorce during his early teens caused an uncertainty in how to express himself, but Bijou would soon find solace and solidarity in a most unexpected place, the words of the legendary Tupac Shakur. The rap music that attracted Bijou painted pictures that spoke directly to his soul which he expressed in poetry. Eventually at the age of fourteen he began writing his own verse and joined other local youth in honing their voices.
Bijou became transfixed in creating music which carried throughout high school. Performing locally to consistent crowds, he scored a regional hit with the song "Welcome to Mendo" which recieved local airplay. After graduating high school he attended San Diego State where he continued to make music and perform at school functions. Bijou's international background also led him to perform in Israel and Morocco.
This year Bijou left college to complete his debut CD, "Where The Pavement Ends," which brings him back home where he finds himself more comfortable now than ever before.
"I kind of had to leave home to find home. This album is an honest look at my life, where I am now; it reflects my journey, which I know is just beginning."
