Biography

At the age of 21, he joined Machiavel at a time when the band was going through fundamental (personnel) changes, and looking for a new direction. This led to more of a hard rock sound, combined with greater maturity and simplicity, culminating in the hit single "Fly" from their 1980 album "New Lines". In the 1990s, Thierry Plas became a highly appreciated session musician, playing live and recording with Vaya Con Dios, Vladimir Cosma, Pierre Rapsat, Beverly Jo Scott, Billy Preston and other Belgian, French & international artists.

Plas was also a member of The Responsibles with Patrick Riguelle who released one album, "Every Germ is Sacred" (1995) and were chosen as the opening act for

Köln
.

In 2000, Plas and Marc Ysaye (of Machiavel) teamed up again to record the Purple Prose album with Dani Klein, and in 2004 Thierry did arrangements & guitars for several tracks on the album of Vaya Con Dios "The Promise". Under the pseudonym "Michel Vaillant", he also participated in several hip-hop successes. Other production credits over the years have included Belgium's 1988 Eurovision candidate Joseph Reynaerts, Brandthout, Klaus Klang and Raxola.[4]
