Andre Darius

Born: February 14, 1976

Self-taught musician, I occasionally compose, frequently improvise, constantly experiment. With my acoustic and electric basses, whether or not prepared, I question and explore the entire realm of possible in the search of the right note, that "note" of music able to unify time and space. Since 2011, both in groups and solo situations, I seek to express and capture the present moment without any pretence and artifice. Obviously, I fail, from time to time in this quest... But it doesn't matter, because even if it's less flattering and gratifying for the ego, I do prefer the naked truth to the vain beauty. biography at http://andredarius-biography.blogspot.fr/

O’Brien’s father, an avant-garde leaning trumpet player, provided a varied foundation. “My dad was way off into free jazz, listening to Bill Dixon, Cecil Taylor, Kenny Wheeler, and of course Coltrane and Miles Davis, so there was that,” says O’Brien, ticking off influential jazz heavyweights as though they’re old pals
