He released a solo album «Unplugged journey» (Koka) that features a lot of his acoustic world guitars. This Cd has been used extensively all around the world by musical illustrators (commercials, movies etc...)
He has his own show (based on what he did on stage with Rogers for the opening of
Jean Jacques Goldman 94/95 concerts) where he plays and demonstrates more than twelve «guitars of the world», including pedal steel, oud, banjo, dobro, guitars, bozuki... He still participates to guitar concerts ( sharing the bill with John Mc Laughlin,
Jean Felix Lalanne, Birelli lagrene etc...)

He enjoys mixing lo-tech and hi-tech recording approaches in his own Paris
based studio : Studio 124, by the name of his own publishing/production company.
He has composed and arranged several award-winning projects, including movies
(« Bo Ba Bu », voted best music at the Shanghai International Film Festival in 2001), video games (« Rayman », the famous worldwide hit by UbiSoft, Jim Henson's
"Bear in the big blue house" CDRom) and many others.

"world guitars" afficionados from all around the world. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
