Sébastien Lhoest
short bio

Self-taught keyboard player and composer, Sébastien was a long-time friend when he joined Soysoy in 2003 (he had previously collaborated with the band on stage). Sébastien brought along a distinctive electro-atmospheric stamp. The freshly-formed trio instantly found its balance within this new sound alchemy.

Photo de Sébastien - natureSébastien has an instinctive, non-conformist, even eccentric approach to composing. This allows him to open new, exciting paths on which Franck and Cécile will put their mark to make the song more accessible, without ever erasing the strange and fascinating underlayer.

Despite being a remakarble singer, Sébastien, who is rather shy, prefers to avoid the limelight and feels more comfortable at the back of the stage. One can't avoid thinking of some puppeteer pulling the strings in the shadow...

His off-beat programming is in turns cuddling and rowdy. He brings adventurous and tasty melodies to Soysoy's musical mystery.

Sébastien is currently playing with....

  • SOYSOY on keyboards and programming
  • THE ALMIGHTY ALAN SMITHEE BAND on vocals, keyboards and programming
