Raphael Fays has been one of the top Gypsy jazz virtuosos for the past two decades. Born in Paris, he was quickly recognized as a child prodigy. His father Louis Fays accompanied him for many years. Raphael had the misfortune of having much of his career take place during the 70s and 80s. A time when there was little interest in Gypsy jazz. However, his pioneering use of Latin rhythms and modern repertoire influenced the next generation of super stars: Bireli Lagrene, Stochelo Rosenberg, etc.

Raphael Fays has an excellent right hand Gypsy Picking technique. Watch closely. He is one of the few Gypsy guitarists who plays with his hand entirely off the top of the guitar.

To hear more Raphael Fays see: Gypsy & Classic, Raphael Fays, In Concert, Swing Guitar, Ballade Manouche and Voyages.
