About
Jad Wio is a French rock band, created in 1982 by Denis Bortek, with Christophe K-Bye joining later. Christophe K-Bye describes Jad Wio's work as "a baroque, excentric, extravagant... universe".
During its history, the band has experimented with a variety of musical genres (batcave, rock, chanson française, electro) and themes: sado-masochism in their Contact album (1989), Blade Runner in Fleur de Métal (1992), horror movies in Monstre moi (1995), without losing its consistency.
Jad Wio's originality resides as much in its lyrics, written mostly in French by Denis Bortek, as in the inventiveness of K-Bye on the guitar and on the combination of wildness and theatricality in its live performances.

Jad Wio est un groupe de rock français créé en 1982 par Denis Bortek. Influencé au départ par le garage rock et l'electro, il a progressivement évolué vers un glam rock parfois teinté de chanson française. Composé initialement de Denis Bortek au chant et de Christophe K-Bye à la guitare, ce duo s'entoure occasionnellement de musiciens additionnels.
