Lo Polidoro

About Lo Polidoro

Born in Burgundy of French and Italian parents, I grew up in rural central France, in a house full of singing of my mother and sisters. After a few years of performing in bars and cafes with my sister Aurelie, I made a sudden decision to move to London and, within a few months, met a network of musicians who inspired me to learn finger style guitar and to begin writing songs. I also discovered the octave mandola. After 4 years playing with Martin Brown, Mick Halewood and Kirsten Hammond, we have decided to extend the band by adding 3 new members: Simon Cowderoy(bass);Les Morgan(drums) and Brian Foley(Saxophones). Everyone plays on the new album ''Le Carrousel des jours''. It has been a real adventure recording with Gary J Brady at his studio Escapade Music in Greenwich. I left the band Circulus a couple of years ago so I could concentrate a bit more on my songs and on my other band Fleur de Paris....
