Biography
For fifty years,Jofroihas been singing. From his native Belgium to his haven in the Gard region of Cabiac, from Montreal to Reunion, from Dakar to Paris, Jofroi sows the words of a French language that he handles like no other. He sings about love. The love of nature, the love of life, the love of people, the love of everything. He also scolds, sometimes, with his warm and deep voice. Against injustice, indifference, resignation, and stupid complacency. More than ever committed to a more human and welcoming world, Jofroi sows little pebbles of brotherhood everywhere. Tenderness and hope too, a lot. A visceral commitment, coupled with an invitation to poetry... In a whirlwind of little things that make a big whole, he also becomes a storyteller between each song... And it is life that bubbles up, that questions us, that amuses us and that capsizes us. jofroi.com
