Jérôme RICHARD was born on June 29, 1980 in Cholet. He started music theory at the conservatory and took his first accordion lesson at the age of 6. Quickly demonstrating exceptional musical dispositions, he decided to work on his instrument at the Conservatoire du IX Paris and devoted himself entirely to music to successfully prepare and win the biggest national and international competitions (6 times world champion). He toured all over France for 6 consecutive years (1999 – 2004) with three different shows for the Jeunesses Musicales de France. In 2002, Jérôme RICHARD creates his training and surrounds himself with professional musicians. He travels the streets of France and abroad all year round to make lovers of popular dances dance. The quality of his lively, dynamic, festive and dancing music makes him famous. Many show organizers request it every year because they know their evening will be a success and remain a prestigious and exceptional event.
