Bernard Lubat


Bernard Lubat (born July 12, 1945, Uzeste) is a French jazz drummer, percussionist, vibraphonist, and accordionist.

Lubat grew up in a musical family (his father played trumpet) and he received formal training at the Bordeaux Conservatory and the Paris Conservatory. He worked with Jef Gilson in 1964-1965 and was a vocalist with Les Double Six in 1965; later in the decade he drummed for the Paris Jazz All Stars, Roger Guerin, and the Swingle Singers. He also worked as a session musician, for Hubert Rostaing among others. He began a long-term association with Michel Portal in 1969 and played increasingly in avant-garde idioms, though he continued working in more traditional styles with Dexter Gordon, Stan Getz, and Eddy Louiss, among others. He was awarded the Prix Django Reinhardt in 1972.
