BILLIE

Billie, 23, blends English heritage and French sensitivity: from edgy rock with tender words, from momentum to fragility. She has been singing and playing the piano since the age of 6, growing up between the dream pop of the Cocteau Twins, the post-punk of Joy Division, the boldness of The Velvet Underground, and the voices of France Gall or Françoise Hardy. The Talking Heads film Stop Making Sense acted as a turning point.

Trained at the American School of Modern Music and later moving to England, she refined her technique, writes in français, and shapes a feminine rock music, between clear vocals and distorted guitars.

Her first EP J’avance explores desire, melancholy, and urgency. Produced between London and France with Zacharie Berdugo (Ayrakaz) then Clément and Adrien from Kids Return, it affirms an organic, melodic, and electric pop-rock.

With her new EP À ce que les autres pensent de moi, Billie delivers an intimate and generational project on identity, the gaze of others, and the traces of the past, or how we build ourselves, between discreet wounds and persistent memories.
