BIOGRAPHY

Christophe is born on September 30, 1970 in Berck-sur-Mer, balneal city full of charm located on the "Côte d'Opale", then left for Switzerland at the age of 3. There, in 1978, Chris entered the Zurich's Music Academy where he started study the oboe. In 1982, he had the chance to meet the singer and guitarist of "The Steps" (rock'n'roll-blues Swiss band) what decided him to study the guitar at the sides of Peter Kane. Less than one year later, he created the rock'n roll band "The Billys" with whom he run through Switzerland and Deutschland stages during more than four years, before entering in studio to record „Dis le moi“ which will be broadcasted on the Zurich's local radios. During the Nineties, Christophe played with several French formations and played several concerts in France and Greece. In 2003, he created and expanded the concept of the „Soirées & Rencontres Musicales de Berdorf" (Grand Duchy of Luxembourg), of which he is the artistic director. During a concert given in homage to Mozart - whose Chris estimates that he was the first rock'n roller - Chris made his improvised come-back on stage with classical musicians who exhanged their instruments for a battery and a piano boogy. In front of the success they had, Chris decided to go back to the composition (and, in the same time, became a member of the SACEM). Christophe made his official come-back on scene on August 16, 2007 for a great concert/dance rock' roll & rockabilly given in homage to Elvis Presley, at the sides of the French rock'n'roll band "Les Forbans" and the german rockabilly band "The Hackensacks". For this occasion, it founded "The Unlikely Devils" band which, as its name means, is a completely improbable band because, on the one hand, it brings together musicians of Classical (the drumer is the oboe and the cor anglais solo of the National orchestra of Montpellier - the saxophonist is bassoonist solo of the same orchestra) and, on the other hand, a guitarist and a bass player of the East of France… who met only for a short repetition two days before this famous concert!!!
