Joachim Caffonnette was born on the 4th of July, 1989. There is no pride in that useless fact, but from the point of view of a European jazz musician, it might make sense… Or maybe not. Fruit of the union between a globetrotter avant-garde actress and a passionate father specialized in multi-tasking, Caffonnette’s childhood was spent on tour, in the dressing rooms and behind lighting control desks of countless theatres. At the age of 5, when his mother asked him if he wanted to play an instrument, he chose the piano… God knows why.
