Name: Hadrien Feraud
Date of Birth: 16 August 1984
Place of Birth: Paris, France
Hadrien Feraud is a known French Jazz fusion-bassist. His family is very much into music.
Originally, Feraud’s inclination was towards playing the drums. But after hearing Jaco Pastorius’ The Birthday Concert, which was a gift from his dad when he was 12, he decided to pursue playing the electric bass. Amazed by Jaco’s musical work, he joined the ranks of youngest and greatest bass players in France in a decade.
His musical universe expanded through occasional collaborations. Studying/listening to the works of other musicians and bassist like Christian McBride, Anthony Jackson, Victor Bailey, Skulli Sverisson, Matthew Garrison Gary Willis, Linley Marthe and Richard Bona helped him hone his craft. Up to now, his primary inspirations are the complete musical compositions of Jaco Pastorius and Weather Report.
Christian Pegand (the concert manager of Bireli Lagrenes and John McLaughlin) asked Feraud back in 2001 to participate in the ‘bass contre bass’ concert. Playing with Sylvain Luc and Bireli Lagrene on guitars and Frank Agulhon on drums, Feraud created a notable impact. His genuine talent was recognised by Lagrene.
In Feraud met Strasbourg’s Jim and Jon Grancamp through Bireli Lagrene in 2002. Jim Feraud (bass), Jim (guitars), and Jon (drums) established a power-trio named ‘Le Cartel’. They played on different stages in the capital of France, around France, and overseas.
