Artist Profile - Alain Bacco: ‘My career has been very challenging’ |05 January 2017

Every week the Entertainment page will try to bring you a short profile on a Seychellois artist – be it in the performing, visual or other forms of art.

In our first profile, readers will learn more about the talented musician, singer, producer Alain Bacco.

 

Q: At what age did you start your music career?

A: I started my career at the age of 13 and I have spent 37 years in the local music industry. Initially I started as a guitarist and along the way I wanted to expand my horizon to become the musician I am today.

 

Q: What changes have you brought in the music industry?

A: I have brought a lot of changes since I started in this industry; I have helped many other local artists who are now doing well on their own.

 

Q: Will you consider yourself an artist or entertainer?

A: I will consider myself an artist who is fully involved in production, recording and helping other artists to become independent.

 

Q: What other activities you have besides music?

A: Besides my music career, I am also a manager for production. I help other artists prepare their business plan. Also I am involved in almost every local show in Seychelles, albeit in the background.

 

Q: How will you describe your career since you started?

A: My career has been very challenging; I’ve had much success and brought many changes along the way. I want our local music industry to be more productive, because as artists we want to get the attention we deserve. We need to work hard so that each artist in Seychelles can become independent and make a living out of music.
