Well it's a kind of ever-changing line-up band. So i guess i'm the only constant member of the thing, but i'm completely grateful to those musicians, who give their time and patience to help me. contact me at: darkdraziel@hotmail.com
Influences
Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, Jimi Hendrix, loads of bluesmen like Robert Johnson and JB Lenoir, Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones, The Doors, Jazzmen like Django Reinhardt, and also Devendra Banhart, Elliott Smith and Bright Eyes...
it's kind of eclectic, but keeps the same spirit of music..
Sounds Like
a blend of cynical sense and bluesy feelings carried by folk songs.. or something..
"I started playing the guitar in 2002 with the song ’stairway to heaven’ by led zeppelin. Then in 2003 I started to write my own materials. I released by myself my first album and sold it in my hometown. I kept writing stuff and in 2004 the Lost-Minded band was created. in 2005 I met Clement of the band The Wedding Soundtrack and we did a gig together in Paris. We took part in his label compilation ’Sweets For The Wild’ ( Another Record ) and we started doing shows. In 2007 we supported Florent Marchet in Paris and now we’re looking for gigs opportunities."

What others are saying:
"Jonathan IS the Dada Weatherman. When I first heard ’Flying on a Cloud’ and ’Waltz 3’ I think my heart skipped a few beats as the vocals ascended a lovely, soft, and evocative if not ethereal sound. The guitar was strikingly gentle and swept my ears into a state of emotional bliss. I found myself going often to the Dada Weatherman page as Jo and I had began talks about what my record label at the time could possibly offer him. That time is now in the past and the Dada Weatherman’s music has been given representation by Chilla Productions, my collective that supports exclusively my own projects and now that of the Dada Weatherman. Since the collective mainly has focused on experimental music I was not quite sure how the audience would respond to something so different... so drastically refreshing! The answer is that they are loving the mix! Jonathan is an amazing artist who is passionate and prolific with his music and will be turning heads and warming souls far into his future as an artist. His craft is young yet the foundation formed quite solid under his foot as he continues to carve elegant and finely tuned acoustic creations." -K. Cornelius, January 2007, Chilla Productions.
"The Dada Weatherman is the project of Jonathan, young songwriter, 18, exceptionally gifted, pianist of formation but guitarist in the heart. The addition of a flute, a cello, a bass and drums brings lightness and originality to his music. His influences are the jazz of Django Reinhardt, the Blues, Leonard Cohen and Jimi Hendrix. Even though, the Dada Weatherman can be tagged as a folk-rock band. France has its Conor Oberst (Bright Eyes)."
-F. Huet, January 2005, Another Record.
This band has been called ’Lost-Minded’ then ’Cynical Sense’ and finally ’The Dada Weatherman’...
