About me

The first time I heard The Police on the radio was in 1979 with Roxanne and Message In A Bottle. I was 9 !
Then my mother gave me the two first albums Outlandos d'Amour and Reggatta de Blanc on tape as gifts and I listened both of them again, and again, and again... until 1984 when I discovered the three following albums. Meanwhile, I was brought up with The Police and their hit singles on the radio and on TV during my childhood and adolescence !
Then in 1987 I began to collect vinyls, books and live bootleg tapes. Now I've got a nice little collection of books and mags, and about 300 live recordings.

Beside my job (train driver), I play in two bands, Aghostino (noise math-rock quatuor) where I play the bass and sing, and No drum No Moog (math-disco rock), a new project with the drummer of Aghostino. It's a duet where I play Moog synthesizers and I sing.

I'm married and have a little boy named Loïc (almost 2 yo).
