PATRICK JOUANNEAU
Drummer, singer, author and compose, Patrick Jouanneau discovers music when he was seven, while he was listening to a Beethoven's score. Later, the Who, the Beatles, and John Coltrane, will definitively kindle his passion.
He starts playing with blues bands and writes his first pieces of poetry. Being self taught, he studies sol-fa and enters the Guy Lognon's jazz masterclass in Marseille's conservatory.
His way of playing is much appreciated and gets to know a lot of people : WANKATAO, Christian BRAZIER, Bernard ABEILLE, Yves LAPLANE, Marco CAMPO, etc… He soon plays different music styles.
In 1985 he makes a record with the band FIZZ, where he plays the drums, sings and signs many titles. The music is in the funk-jazz area.
He starts studio sessions with COLORS, Gilles VALLI, Jean LOZZI, Nadia MECHBA, WALTON ORNATO, John SLADE, la ZONE ZEN, AZZO, and many others...
He decides to work on his own creations, arrangements, sound, mixing in his home-studio.
In 2003 he makes a duet with a very fine guitarist, Florent Maynard,
on the water theme. The record is called « Paysages d'eaux »
(water landscapes), under the band name of ATHEME. He is also working on his own songs.
He is the creator of a project that is very important to him, the BLUES PROJECT, a work on the blues' roots and slavery : combining conferences with musical performances. In the meantime, a record is being prepared with his friends, Christian LOUBÈS and Helmut NUNNING.
