1988 - My first experience with a band. Jaime (guit) and Marco (naked leg) at the drums… I 've just bought my double bass with money I win to sell my old vespa…I'm seventeen…The name of the band is "Gorillas"… old rock'n'roll…or some noisy thing like that…!!!!

1989 - I have no pics of the second band…This is the Psychobilly period…"The Pterodactyl Hunters" is the name of the band… we plaid for first part of the Batmobile… nervous feeling… Yann, Arnaud…great guys…
1989 - I also create at the same time a roots rockabilly trio called "The Roller Coaster". Actually this band is still alive…Franck the singer, plays for other bands but Eric the drumer is still in this formation wich play garage style…with BDK singer…
1994 - Jump and Jive with the "Merry melodies"… one gig and that's all…
1995 - Rockin'Blues with "Babe Face Combo", Doud (singer), Laurent (guit), Olivier (Bl. Harp) and my brother Stéphane (drums)… Slim Harpo, Muddy Waters, Sonny Boy…black music for FCC
1997 - Mister French Cancan/Vilbo left Tours city for Toulouse town… A new Rockin'blues band with other friends "Batling Jack". My brother Seg (Voc, Guit), Henry (Blues harp), Christophe (Drums).
2000 - "Marina and the Ratpack"… she really looks like young edith Piaf…Marina sings the blues with Seg, JP, my other brother Joce (Paradirama clothing) and Vilbo FCC. Tuxedo of course for the Pack…
2005 - "Jack Face and The Volcanoes" invited me for few gigs and I 'm still in the Trio…
We are a bit lazy and use to play only for big shows… for fun…
Rockabilly rave (UK), Viva Las Vegas (US), Screamin' (Sp)… with Sylvain and Seg…
2003 - "The gadjo Zaz Trio"… Actual formation with Zino and Brudji…30's US and French swing … Nice shows in Milano for Burlesque Parade, UK Rhythm Riot…and lots of new gigs…
My baby blue bass from the begining was replaced in 1998… the old "new one" is a bit fragile but still ready to swing … Tuxedo, 30's white suits and 40's western shirts are wainting int the dressing room for the next show… French Cancan loves music, for ever and ever…
