INTERVIEWS by JD Beauvallet

"This time spent in the company of these musicians, listened to religiously by JD Beauvallet, allows us to access the essence of human nature, of the most fragile and complex of species, staging, in a confidence that one feels absolute, their relationship to vulnerability, to laziness, to the ferocity of adolescence, to the death of musician friends too soon ravaged by alcohol and drugs, their relationship to the press whose deleterious effect is a common denominator, solitude, the relationship to the stage that can kill, their fight for music and against commerce, anger, depression, the fear of time passing (...)"
Brigitte Giraud (Goncourt Prize 2022)
