Tubize, BE - one might think that there are more than enough whining brat who bought an acoustic guitar, learned two and a half chords and think they are entitled to moan their despair about their existential gloom, the death of their ficus, undersized shoes or being dumped, so that the world understands what Schopenhauer meant when he wrote that boredom could be a metaphysical experience. But when someone is able to touch you with just a voice and 6 strings, he or she would make the most wonderful friend you've ever met.

I've been doing music since the late 1980s, first in a fun-punk combo called Moïse et les Manches de Pioches (we were not even able to cover a Ramones song...), there in an arty (and somewhat pretentious) combo called La Vierge du Chancelier Rolin, then in an acoustic folk-rock band called Ceilí Moss (which is still alive and kicking today!).

Maybe it's the approach of midlife crisis, but in 2009 I started to feel these songs should get their chance to have a life outside my head. So this is definitely just the beginning. Where shall it lead us? Probably not that far, but does it have to?
