François Micol was born in 1985 and grew up in Voiron, a small French town.

His parents had him start piano lessons when he was 8, but to no avail; he quit soon enough, having learned little. It was only around the time he turned 16 that a rapidly growing passion for music led him to start playing again. He hasn't stopped since.

Now hoping to make a living as a piano teacher and accompanist, and working his hardest towards it, he is studying piano at the Conservatoire of Lyon (France) under Chrystel Saussac.
