” Je ne sais pas vraiment pourquoi on écrit. Ni pour qui. Je ne suis pas sure que ça soit pour le public. Je crois qu’on écrit pour trois ou quatre personne qu’on aime et qui vous crois forte alors qu’on est fragile et qui ne savent pas que d’un mot ils peuvent nous mettre à terre.” – Francoise Sagan
I am a Montreal born, Ottawa raised singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. I have studied both Contemporary and Jazz vocals. I play a variety of traditional instruments including the Autoharp, Piano, Guitar and Baritone Ukulele. More recently, I have found great interest in blending those instruments with textural sounds that I draw from vocal layering, keyboards, bowed crystal glasses, singing bowls, bells and various household objects.
I perform live with Tyler Bell (Electric Guitar) and André M. Bluteau (Percussions, Keyboard, Vocals).
I am also a member of Boys of Bytown an all girls Folk ensemble. This fall we were awarded a recording grant by the Ontario Council of Arts and will begin recording our first album this coming January.
This wordpress serves as a journal in which I post my most recent lyrics, poems and artwork.
