Singer-songwriter with soul, folk and blues
Octave Lissner grew up in Paris and started violin lessons as a child. Later, he discovered the guitar and songwriting. His music is influenced by artists such as Otis Redding, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, and The Rolling Stones. That mix of rock, soul, and folk gives his songs a timeless quality — simultaneously familiar and fresh.
