The problem is probably \addbibresource. The argument for this command requires
a file extension (probably .bib in your case) since biber can access different
kind of data. The <<File>> only seems to give the file name without suffix
which is ok for bibtex. This can be easily resolved by using the traditional
\bibliography command.
