Patrick Saussois

Born in Paris in 1954, Patrick Saussois is a self-taught guitarist who learned music by paying attention to artists such as Django Reinhardt and Henri Crolla, but essentially those he had been close to as a still young guitar player in the 60’s: Jacques Montagne, Maurice Ferret, Lousson, Joseph and Babik Reinhardt or the great Matelo Ferré he would often accompany. His curiosity led him to get involved in all styles of jazz and of music in a larger sense.
