He started playing guitar at the age of seven with his father as his teacher. His father also introduced him to violin.

Two years passed before he assembled another group, in which he played often with his son, Samson Schmitt, and with Christian Escoudé and Babik Reinhardt, the son of Django Reinhardt. He has also worked with Angelo Debarre, Boulou Ferré and his brother Elios Ferré, James Carter, Paquito D’Rivera, Biréli Lagrène, and a Django Reinhardt tribute band led by Brian Torff.
