The song? She takes after her mother, who was once one of the backing singers for the late Berger Agathe. With music in her genes, Nolwenn has had the chance to perform on small stages: “Not so long ago, I sang at my local fancy fair in Baie-du-Tombeau. Then, I also had the chance to take part in the show Les petits génies on MBC,” explains the student who attends the D.A.V college in Morcellement St André.”
It was during her TV appearance that she caught Dallon’s eye: “Dallon is my mom’s friend. It was after my appearance on the show that he contacted me and offered to write a song for me. I was very surprised and accepted. And that’s how Fais moi signe – un zouk love was born, the video for which will be released shortly,” points out the young artist, who also had the opportunity to sing in Belgium recently.
When she grows up, Nolwenn would like to pursue a career in music: “It’s definitely a dream of mine. I’d love to make a living from my passion for music when I’m older.”
