My first album, Crespel features three traditional tunes and thirteen of my own compositions and is available from me now for £10 / €15.  Please get in touch via the contact page.

You can download free samples of three tracks from the list below.

Sometimes the words don't exist or are not strong enough to express a feeling.  The tone of a voice is sometimes more explicit in describing an emotion.  This is why, since I was very young, I have used tones in some of my songs.  I pronounce the sounds but they have no meaning and the listener adds the interpretation.  In the jazz world this is called "Scatt".  I call it "Gwen".

Born into a musical family, I have evolved in a musical world.  Music has an important place in my life and allows me to express sentiments that I cannot talk about and that I sometimes do not understand.  Thanks to my music, I have been able to reveal and observe my true self.

I am glad that my mother has been a part of this experience.  The songs we sing together form part of our daily life.  Traditional songs have surrounded my childhood.

I would like to thank those close to me; my family and friends for their support as well as "my first fans" Armelle, Solange and the others.  But special thanks to Marc, without whom I would not have been able to record my Album 'Crespel' and who offered me a wonderful, memorable 20th birthday present.  Thank you, dear friend!
