Where do you get your inspiration? Do you have a writing process?
I mostly listen to folk music. "First aid kit" has been playing non-stop for one year in my car! I love their vocal harmonies. My writing process is always the same. I start finding chords and then I create a melody. I only write words that fit the mood of the song when I have a good idea of the structure and melody.

After 40 shows with your tour Feu de camp, what is the best song for this type of night?

I have tried a lot of songs in this context; I would say all the popular songs from Les Colocs are a great option. Other than that, classics like I lost my baby or On va s’aimer encore please a lot of people.

Do you have a ritual before your shows?

When I play with my band, I always spend a period of time with my musicians before the show for a little "pep talk" with a positive vibe. I tell them that we’re good, that we know our show well and that we’re going to have fun. Then we shout in group. When I am performing alone, I say a little prayer just before going up on stage, I take deep breathes and I try to put myself in the mood I was before a show in my living room, when I was 5 years old. Carelessness and confidence.

Have you ever had a challenge to outcome?
Lots. Life is a challenge in itself. We have to stop thinking life will be easy, or else we will always be disappointed and hurt. I think we have to see life as a journey with obstacles. When we succeed it is a great gift and when we don’t, it is experience that get’s in. :)

For the jewel of November I got my inspiration from Andreanne. The mountain necklace is available in gold and silver here <3
