Born in 1998, Adrien Bernet is a young French jazz drummer. He began the drums at the age of 4 in the HSMA school network, where he obtained the "Excellence" diploma during the rest of his career. Quickly, he studied piano and classical music to enrich his artistic education.
​
At the age of 15, he entered the Dijon Conservatory in jazz drums, and devoted himself entirely to this style. It's a revelation for him. He is lucky to be able to spend many hours every day at the Conservatory, since his Technical Baccalaureate in Music and Dance (TMD) allows him to.
​
He finished his artistic studies by obtaining his DEM Jazz (Diploma of Musical Studies) at the National School of Music of Villeurbanne.
​
In 2021, during the health crisis, Adrien is undergoing training in cultural project management to enrich his knowledge in the music industry.
​
Active on the French stage, Adrien performs with his regular projects as well as a sideman. It also has the chance to happen occasionally on the Chilean stage. Throughout his career, he also received different honors during national and international competitions.
​
Finally, Adrien has the opportunity to record discs every year. Other Albums and EPs are being produced with his permanent projects...
