  Hi, I'm Benoit Viellefon, I run JohnJohn Records.
I'm a French artist & businessman - This is not a record company. I can't make you famous.
 
     
 
Portrait of Benoit Viellefon

I believe that kindness, positive attitude, beautiful music, art, writing, films, nice environment... bring the best out of people, and contribute to balance the all too cynical attitude of modern over-materialistic society to make the world a nicer place to live in.

We don't need more wealth, we need happiness, so I decided to play music to contribute to the community and bring people together to have a good time.

Chasing a dream or vision can make life difficult, you can help and download mp3s, get cds, show the site around or come to the gigs to have fun & dance.
