Years in Marble

A native of Lyon, France, Raoul Vignal began performing solo at the age of 20. Throughout his

stage performances, he weaves a delicate and harmonious universe, an intimate folk where his

guitar playing (finger-picking and alternate tunings) establishes a subtle resonance with his

soothing voice. He left his hometown at the end of 2013 and moved to Berlin where he stayed for

two years. He then became a prolific musician, carrying out collaborations, recordings and

concerts, which led him to perform in various European countries.

Raoul Vignal moved to Paris in early 2020. Far from the hustle and bustle of the capital, he began

writing his third album in the privacy and calm of his kitchen. After a new detour by Berlin, a city

still rooted in his musical background, the native of Croix-Rousse settled in the Lyon region, away

from the urban bustle, in September 2020. And it's in the countryside, this isolated place where

time stands still and the world outside disappears, that Raoul Vignal recorded 'Years in Marble'.

With Lucien Chatin (drums) and Matteo Fabbri (sound engineer) as his only companions, he

weaves captivating compositions with light shades and more spirited tempos. More hypnotic than

ever, Raoul Vignal's music is both timeless and deeply embedded in our specific time.
