PROJECTS
HADRIEN FERAUD
Drawing references from his favorite musical eras, his love of cinema and sophisticated composition, he is a visionary composer who approaches each composition as a unique musical entity. Hadrien Feraud believes that the music itself comes first, and for each piece, there exists an ideal combination of musicians and vocalists who can bring it to life.
Driven by this philosophy, he carefully selects collaborators based on the sonic and artistic vision of his current project, ensuring that every element aligns with the essence of the composition. While he is often inspired by the talents he works with, his creative process remains fluid and concept-driven, allowing him to craft music that is both authentic and boundary-pushing, free from the constraints of conventional band formats.
