My dancing carrer come to a painful stop when I violently fell from a stage. Then I started to sing. With Mongo Santamaria, among others, I was noticed by Thelonious Monk's manager who opened doors of great jazz clubs of the East Coast where I sang with greats like Ron Carter, Tommy Flanagan, Billy Mitchell, Sonny Stitt, Bobby Timmons...

Later I worked on the international circuit of grand hotels and luxury cruises in Asia, Latin América and the Caribbean. In the United States I had the opportunity of playing a role (including singing and tap dancing) in a musical called The Club. Some years ago, I landed in Paris for a new start. I met and sang with excellent jazz musicians: Alain Jean Marie, Claude Tissendier, Hervé Sellin, Bobby Few, Tony Rabeson, Joel Rakoto, Patrick Villanueva...

Then something completely different: For two years I was the star of the last Folies-Bergère show—what an experience ! I also rediscovered a repertoire from my childhood that I would never have imagined singing : Negro spirituals and gospel.

I keep on singing and composing jazz and blues, now incorporating the power of this music into theatrical works.
