Julien Llamas joined the Dijon brass band at a young age on drums, then moved through various groups, including jazz formations, cover bands, and creative projects as a drummer. After eight years with Three Birds Whisper, he decided to take a break, which only lasted a short while. He chose to rejoin the band as a bassist due to François’s arrival in the meantime. With perfect pitch and an exceptional sense of rhythm, the bass seemed like the perfect instrument for him.
