Clement was born in 1979 in Lille, France. He studied French horn and mathematics before finding his true path: composing music and playing guitar like a wild beast. He spent many years in obscure basements, improvising with the free jazz band We love you , before devoting himself to more composed and produced music with the power pop band Joy as a Toy that he founded with G. Mortio & JP De Gheest. After three LPs, he is leaving his fellow bandmates, going back to more personal works. He now composes and tours mainly with his solo works and Under the Reefs Orchestra. Passionate about dance and choreography, he also collaborates as a composer and performer with the dancer Anne-Laure Lamarque within the company Butô-pop Experience. He is also one of Nicolas Michaux’s notorious Soldiers of Love and a founding member of Yôkaï. |
