Jean-Pierre Mader

"Macumba", "Disparue", "Un pied devant l’autre" or " En résumé, en conclusion"... These four titles rocked the 1980s. With so many hits, Jean-Pierre Mader became one of the essential French figures of the time.
Born on June 21, 1955 in Toulouse, Jean-Pierre Mader quickly became passionate about music.
After serious computer science studies, he became a bassist in Tangara, a local Toulouse group, and then in a ball orchestra called the Gauls.
In the early 1980s, he met Richard Seff, with whom he wrote songs, including "Macumba" and "Disparue".
In 1984, the artist was noticed by a producer who directly produced his first album. It's a triumph.
"Disparue", "Macumba", " Un pied devant l’autre", "Outsider", " Jalousie" and "En résumé, en conclusion" sign real successes. With more than four million copies of his album sold and hundreds of French concerts, Jean-Pierre Mader marked the 1980s with his mark.
After triumphing as a singer, Jean-Pierre Mader became a producer and director at the end of the 1980s for many French-speaking artists: Michel Fugain, Philippe Léotard or Bernard Lavilliers.
Jean-Pierre Mader still lives today from his passion for music, especially through tours and in particular those around the 1980s, thanks to the film "Stars 80" (release October 24, 2012) by Frédéric Forestier with Richard Anconina and Patrick Timsit.
