Ça nous fait tellement plaisir, mais aussi, ça nous aide à vous connaître aussi. Et en bonus ça aide à la visibilité de la chaîne, ce qui aide aussi à faire connaître notre musique. Et peut-être un jour nous faciliter les choses quand on cherche des concerts. 🎵 ✨ 🎶

A prayer song 🎵🎶

By

An improvised song we recorded last week, in the evening our camper van broke.

We were visiting a small lighthouse in the area, and the acoustics in the staircase were very inspiring.

The second voice is our son’s. 🎵 🎶

Recorded on a phone, arranged + mixed by Yann on the same WE.

Not knowing how we’ll manage with the Camper van repairs is stressful.to say the least. We’re trying to make the best out of it.

We’re learning patience, and to see beyond sadness and devastation.

🎵 Flickan Går På Golvet SWEDISH FOLK Song 🎻

By

We had recorded this song back in 2023, and filmed plenty of sequences while travelling around in Sweden last fall, which was both fitting and inspiring. And then… Breton winter happened!

The longest and darkest winter we ever had in Brittany, long days of rain, and heavy dark grey clouds over our heads had quite an impact on our working and creative flow. When Ciarann tempest hit Brittany, on the day of the Celtic New Year, that was a sign, wasn’t it?

Apart from the difficulty of doing anything outdoors, like filming or taking pictures, we also had to deal with a few issues on our house. Leaks on our roof appeared, mostly due to so many rainy days without the natural stone (slate) being able to dry.

Needless to say, that kept us busy! not in the nicest way.

My (Simone here!) personal health also paid its tribute to these harsh conditions, and time for some warm dry sun was much needed.

That’s how we headed to Portugal for a few weeks, and finally find the energy to finalise this video! We hope you’le enjoy it. And we hope at some point, this song could make its way to an album – yes! We’re still debating on how to make the next album.

Wishing you all a nice spring, enjoy the music, enjoy the sun,

Blessings from sunny Brittany!

Start with what you have!

Start with what you have!

Being adventurous and always aiming for more than you are supposed to be able to reach, is a way of life. 🌲 🛣️

Small bits from our road trip in Sweden.

Not finding excuses about what one “could” do if (fill in the blanks).

Without waiting, there’s plenty you can do with what you have already, and you’ll find even more ways to do it on the way.

We recorded our first album on a computer that wasn’t powerful enough. So our first album is recorded on 16b instead of the standard 24 that was the norm already.

I filmed my first video on a webcam, and edited it with a free software. My second video had plenty of pictures included because I didn’t have enough footage, and no room to store that hypothetical footage.

We own an old timer Ford Transit from the 90’s, and we still converted it to be somewhat off grid for a few days, and also access some off-road side.

We did not wait to have a better computer. We did not wait to have a camera. We did not wait to get a 4/4 expedition truck.

We just do with what we have, and solve the problems as we go.

What can you do now? What do you have you could use without waiting and go after your dreams?

We have a full playlist of daily sequences from our artistic road trip in Scandinavia, check out the description area for thoughts about creativity, art, travel and Swedish culture.
