GERALD MASSOIS is a multi-talented French musician, composer and arranger specializing in symphonic progressive rock. Drawing his inspiration from a variety of musical styles (Ange, Peter Gabriel, Dream Theater, Ennio Morricone...), he released in 2018 his first album «Le vol erratique d'un papillon» based on the attacks of the Bataclan. Available exclusively in digital version (bandcamp, artist’s website, streaming platforms), this self-produced opus was written as the first piece of a musical trilogy. At that time, GERALD MASSOIS played all instruments except the drums of his long-time comrade Maxx GILLARD. To celebrate this album, a band is preparing to play at the Prog'Sud festival in May 2019, with JONATHAN TAVAN on bass and his co-producer NICOLAS GARDEL on keyboards.



The same year, GERALD MASSOIS begins writing new songs for his second album. Delayed by the pandemic, this album entitled «Demain à l'aube» was released on 12/01/2024 on digital and Digipack and will be available on 01/02/2025 on streaming platforms/ Bandcamp. His music combines complex arrangements, orchestral influences and a mix of acoustic and electric instrumentation to create evocative and concept-driven compositions. Some guests are invited for this album including GIONATAN CARRADONA of PROFUSION.



In addition to some orchestrations and keyboards, NICOLAS GARDEL co-orchestrates, mixes and masters the album.



The third part of the trilogy is already written...
