A little about me:
My name is Romain Bigeard, I am French, I am a guitarist and I am based in Byron Bay, Australia.
I started playing the guitar at age 16 inspired by guitar greats such as Jimi Hendrix and Joe Satriani as well as bands such as U2 and The Cure (that was in the late 80s!). I have played over the years with various cover and original bands around Besançon, in Eastern France. I then moved to Dublin, Ireland and Paris, France where I built up home studio recording skills. I was a regular contributor to French magazines Keyboards and Soundkeys from 1994 to 2003.
In 2008 I moved to Amsterdam where I launched Guitar Tone Overload, a blog dedicated to the quest for the ultimate Guitar Tone. In 2010, I recorded my first album, Fiction, while living on a houseboat with my Australian girlfriend in Amsterdam before heading out down under to start a family. I’m currently on the look out for a blues or progressive rock band to join in the Northern Rivers region. And during the day, I work in the cloud.
