Hello, my name is Richard Daudé, I was born on 07.07.1975 in Nimes, in the south of France.
I received my first guitar when I was 15 years old, but did not practice it until I joined a music school

I received my first guitar when I was 15 years old, but did not practice it until I joined a music school
when I was 18. I learnt harmony, rythm, and jazz music essentially there, and had some really
cool live and studio experiences. For the little story, I met Franck Hermanny there (the incredible
bass player of Addagio and Cyril's Achard Band) who quickly became my best friend.
After school, I started to work as a professionnal musician by playing in some straight rock and reggae
bands, and teaching guitar in the city I was living in. Around 1998, I took 2 days of lessons with Ron Thal.
I started to record my music at that moment, and released my first cd called "D-FUSION".
In 2000, I joined the line6 company, as a demonstrator, and travelled a lot to play some gigs in England,
the Los Angeles NAMM SHOW, the Frankfurt MUSICMESSE and the Paris music tradeshow.
The same year I released my second demo called "LABYRINTHE".
In 2001, I recorded a track called "DARK AGES", for the LIQUID NOTE RECORDS guitar compilation
called "THE ALCHEMISTS", an incredible double cd on wich you can hear monster players like
BRETT GARSED, TODD DUANE, RON THAL, TERRY SYREK, DAVE MARTONE
and a lot more, the list is very long!
In 2002 I went to Rotterdam, Holland, to perform at the SHREDFEST in first part of the RON THAL's show.
A video of this clinic is available. I'm actually finishing my third cd called "ALL THAT JAZZ"
this record is available.
