" For me the diatonic accordion and Breton music are universal.
Swing, melancholy and harmony...
My music is deeply rooted, but it is nourished from all sources,
from every encounter."

My past musical experiences show this:

The group SKOLVAN that I founded in 1984, with whom I played for nearly 15 years.
“The spontaneous music of Skolvan is a festival of punch, swing, humor, emotion and delicacy.” Musique Bretonne

COCKTAIL DIATONIQUE, ensemble of four diatonic accordions whose existance was ephemeral but remarkable. An innovative move which culminated in concerts and a CD with Richard Galliano.

“The ensemble functions marvelously and proves that traditional music interpreted without regard to dogma produces eternal freshness.” L'évènement du jeudi

and other experiences in progress:

A TRIO, original and jazzy, with Gildas Boclé (double bass) and Dom Molard (percussion)

“Yann-Fañch Perroches astounded the listener with a very new conception of music, as witnessed by the music lovers remaining to congratulate him after the concert.”
Le Télégramme de Brest

A DUO with Fañch Landreau on violin. At the same time very “trad”, very “swing” and very innovative (Our CD “Daou-ha-Daou” has just been released by Keltia Musique)

A DUO dedicated to the dance with Stéphane Morvan on wooden traverse flute. Energy and effectiveness!

Live, improvised music for a marionnette theater (“The Dragon's egg”), a show presented entirely in poetry.

Setting to music laments from the Pays Gallo, with singer Véronique Bourjot and the group “Jolie Vilaine”. Still in full experimental mode, but already awarded "golden Bogue" 2000 in Redon!

“ It’s always a great moment of pleasure to listen to Yann-Fañch PERROCHES. The power, purity and delicacy of his playing sends shivers down your spine, he is truly one of the great diatonic players.”   Accordéon Magazine
