Emmanuelle Parrenin

MOTUS POCUS of Pierre Bastien and Emmanuelle Parrenin at Théâtre Berthelot in Montreuil, Seine-Saint-Denis


Emmanuelle Parrenin is a French folk singer who was active in the late 1960s and 1970s, and is currently starting a new career.

She has not achieved the sort of widespread notoriety of the likes of Françoise Hardy, but she is well acclaimed and respected for her accomplished blending of traditional, ethereal folk styles with experimental, avant garde percussion pieces, which often draws comparisons with the likes of Brigitte Fontaine, and to a lesser extent Vashti Bunyan and Linda Perhacs.

Maison Rose is her first album, released in 1977. She has released a new album Maison Cube with a new label Les Disques Bien in March 2011.
