This is the artist name borrowed from Stevenson’s Treasure Island by Jean Grillet. During his childhood he grew up near Bordeaux where he met Mark Daumail (Cocoon) who put his foot in the stirrup. Piano at 6, guitar at 13, he later finds music to tell his inner self. Spotted by Le Chantier des Francos, the one who has already written for Vanessa Paradiscap still screwed on his head, presents his album “True Stories”.
Despite his hounding artist name, black dog likes soft songs. On pointillist arrangements of guitars, pianos and electronic programming, he interprets them with a slender voice that evokes the lost paradise of childhood. On the surface, his songs sound like friendly nursery rhymes, catchy and light.
His single “Blue Light” was selected as Francophone discovery of Francophone Public Media. He is also one of the winners of the FAIR 2021 and will play again Francofolies of La Rochelle.
