Ziako means “healing music to share” in Malagasy. A name he had chosen initially thinking it meant I love you. Even if today, Johan Brard knows the right translation, he kept this name because indeed music can cure many ailments, and his music, Ziako likes to share it, in France or beyond our borders. Besides his travels inspire his music and his folk guitara guitar that has accompanied him for 20 years.
– John Brard
Ziako was lulled by music and sport thanks to a drummer grandfather and a boxing trainer dad. Johan Brard put on gloves until he became twice French vice – champion of boxing at the end of adolescence, but finally, the music won the last round.
Ziako will be in concert at Parc Expo for La Rochelle Bière Festival from March 25 to 27
