Biography

After studying sociology, Christophe turned towards a musical career and participated in the Rencontres d'Astaffort sponsored by Francis Cabrel. Following this participation in the festival, he crossed paths with Louis Chedid and signed a record contract with Universal Music under the pseudonym Monsieur Clément.

In 2005, his first album Monsieur Clément, produced by Albin de la Simone, was released with the single Je n'ai jamais su. He gained attention from critics, including being described as a new Souchon.

He released a second album in 2007, Comme un enfant, and opened for Calogero and Marc Lavoine.

Christophe left Universal and his pseudonym to join the participatory project My Major Company. With the help of online contributors, a third album Funambule was released in 2011.

Christophe also writes for other artists such as David Hallyday and Ariane Moffatt. In 2013, he co-wrote the song Les murs porteurs for Florent Pagny on the album Vieillir avec toi with music by Calogero.

His fourth album, Cowboy désarmé, was released in 2015, and Christophe Cirillo opened for Calogero's tour.
