Biography

His highly electric folk music had a pleasant rock resonance. Between Philips and Motors, the Francis Dreyfus label, Ferré Grignard built a career, marginal by conviction, between the Benelux countries, Germany and France, where he would always be known only to a circle of initiates. His lyrics, which he interprets in English, cultivate the pacifism and revolt of the beat generation, of which he is an authentic son, right down to his looks. Several of his compositions, such as "Don't Cry My Baby" and "Railroad Bill", would have deserved a different audience. Ferré Grignard died of liver cancer in September 1982, almost to general indifference. It's worth pointing out that his repertoire was particularly plundered by well-known singers.
