......
I started singing pop, soul and rhytm'n blues at 18 playing with differents bands. In 1995, I joined ' Difference Gospel choir ' as a chorus member, we were 40. I've been singing with that choir for years and in 1998 I became solist. In 2000, I met some great blues musicians in Paris : Thibaut Chopin, Fabrice Millerioux, Stan Noubard Pacha and I recorded my first demo with them : That was the biginning of Mama's Biscuits 's band. We recorded our second demo and played along for years. During that period, I met other musicians : Stéphane Manaranche,Javier Lobillo,Simon Boyer, Julien Bruneteau, jean-Marc Despeignes, Marty Vickers, Philippe Floris to perform with Mama's Biscuits.
All that musicians are among the most experienced of the european blues scene and have performed with famous american bluesmen. They also got awarded and nominated several times by Trophées France Blues, ( french blues awards ). In 2005, I recorded my first album WOMAN that is a tribute to great blues and rhytm'n blues singers from the 50/60es.The band Mama's Biscuits got nominated in 2005 and I for singing. The cd WOMAN also got selected to represent France as best-self produced cd for international blues challenge from Memphis Blues Foundation.
