Biography Jean-Pierre Alarcen

Guitarist Jean-Pierre Alarcen was recognised as a talented session musician in the 60's. Following the advice of a small label's artistic director, drummer Michel Jullien, keyboardist Henri Garella, and bassist Christian Clairefond contacted Alarcen. They, as EDEN ROSE, went on to release a bluesy progressive rock influenced LP called "On the Way to Eden" in 1970. Unfortunately, problems arose and the band soon disbanded. Fortunately, they soon reformed under a new name, SANDROSE, in 1971, where they made a larger impression on progressive rock.

Following SANDROSE, Jean-Pierre Alarcen worked with many respected French musicians and composers. In 1978 Alarcen released his first "solo" album. In 1979, he released his next album, "Tableau No. 1". In 1998 he released Tableau No. 2.
