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.\n

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