about

Pierre Vervloesem was born in 1964 and has never stopped playing bass or guitar since he was 17.
His masters were Zappa, Adrian Belew and Robert Fripp, and you can definitively hear their influences here and there on all the albums that he has recorded. He is always saying that he doesn’t like jazz though there is evidently touches of it everywhere. He is a huge fan of John Barry (he did an entire album of improbable covers : ‘Plays John Barry’) Stravinsky, PIL, Godley&Creme, XTC, This heat, Fantomas and Perez Prado.
All those musicians are part of the music of ‘NOT EVEN CLOSE’ even though what he plays is really unique!
This was supposed to be his ‘kewboard’ album, the one where he would not play a single note of guitar or bass…
Really ?
