Françoiz Breut Biography
Françoiz Breut (b. 10 Dec 1969, Cherbourg France) is a French singer ("une chanteuse française") and professional illustrator. Her music might be categorized as french pop; however, contrary to "popular" notions of contemporary "pop", her melodies are often restrained, melancholy and somber. She sings primarily in French, with an occasional song in English or Spanish. Most of the music and lyrics are written by collaborators.
Discography
Her first, self-titled album was released in 1997 ("Françoiz Breut"). Her second album was the 2000 "Vingt à Trente Mille Jours" (20 to 30 thousand days); this second album was long awaited by fans, and helped broaden her exposure and appeal internationally. Most recently, in 2005, "Une saison volée" was released. Tip: Françoiz also appears on Calexico's live DVD "World Drifts In: Live at the Barbican" (2004).
By any other name...
The name "Françoiz Breut" is a pseudonym; this name itself was purportedly adopted by Françoiz after her original stage name, Françoiz Brrr, was incorrectly reported in the media. In many forums, her name is continued to be either misspelled or written orthographically incorrectly, such as: "Francoiz" (no cedilla) or "Francois", and her last name incorrectly spelled as "Bruet" (which would be pronounced very differently, as "brew-aye"; as compared to "broo" or "broot").
