Adanowsky (Adan Jodorowsky) of Mexican, Chilean, French and Russian ancestry, is the son of Alejandro
Jodorowsky and Valerie Trumblay. He has appeared in 5 movies to date. As an actor, he won the
Saturn Award for Best Performance by a Younger Actor in 1989 for his role as the Young Fenix in
Santa Sangre, one of his father movies.
Adanowsky starter playing piano at the age of six. At seven, he meet James Brown (he was friend of
his brother) at the backstage of a concert. Brown taught him how to dance like him. Adanowsky's
first guitar lessons where given by The Beatles guitarist George Harrison who was a friend of his
parents, in this occasion Harrison told him that "he was far", he didn't knew if he was far in an
enlightened way or far from being a good guitarist. When he was sixteen he joined the punk band The
Hellboys, then he wanted to try another music genre and meet Yarol Poupad and Adrienne Pauly,
because of these encounters he started playing bass.
In October 30 of 2006 he released his first solo album, Étoile Éternelle as Adanowsky, and his first
single, "L'idole" (meaning "the idol") which was also released in Spanish as "El Idolo". This song is
about a waiter who wants all the attention and dreams of becoming famous, an idol.
According to Adanowsky's My Space, his influences include Elvis Presley, The Temptations,
AC/DC, Frank Sinatra, The Strokes and many more. His variated influences led him to an eclectic
and surrealist sound with lots of jazz and a rock-like sound.
He has also composed works such as Echek (2000), as well as directing Echek. « hide |
