Early years

[edit]

Born in 1990 in Avignon,[1][2] Suzane grew up in Les Angles in a marriage made up of a nurse and a civil servant.[3] She Both instilled in her from an early age her interest in music, with the help of artists such as Fréhel, Édith Piaf, Barbara, and Jacques Brel.[4] When she was five years old,[5] she started classical dance[6] and from the age of eight she studied singing and music theory.[7] During his adolescence, he combined his arts course at the institute with the Grand Avignon Conservatory of Music,[8] Although after the death of a friend of hers, she fell into depression and abandoned her studies.[9]

During the following years she worked different jobs, such as a supermarket cashier or waitress in a diner in Montpellier.[5] In 2014 she decided to move to Paris,[3] to the 20th arrondissement, where she spent four years working in restaurants and bars.[10] At the same time, she resumed her artistic career,[11] She resumed singing lessons and began writing her first songs.[5]

Musical career

[edit]

In 2017, while she was still working at the bar, she met producer Chad Boccara, who gave her a chance after reading her lyrics.[12] Océane decides to adopt Suzane as her stage name in honor of her grandmother[3][13] and in 2018 she publishes her first two singles under her new pseudonym,[14] “L'Insatisfait”[15] and "La Flemme".[16] That year she performs for the first time in public.[3] Throughout 2019, she toured throughout the country, participating in 32 festivals[12] (including the Festival des Vieilles Charrues) and performing more than 200 concerts,[17] including some dates in China and Japan with the French Alliance.[7][18] She became the French artist with the most performances in 2019,[8] without having released an album until then.[3]

In mid-2019 she signed with the 3e bureau record label, a subsidiary of Wagram Music,[7] with which she released her first EP, Suzane.[9] Two of the album's songs, "Suzane"[13] and "Il est où le SAV?",[8] had some success on the Internet.[9] Her first studio album, titled Toï Toï, went on sale in early 2020.[13] The title of the album refers to a German expression that brings good luck[12] and contains fifteen tracks with texts on feminist[13][10] and environmentalist themes.[19] Suzane received great media enthusiasm,[20] becoming the "sensation artist" of 2020.[21] She performed as a headliner at the Olympia in Paris and at Le Trianon,[13][6] in addition to being awarded "Best New Artist" at the 35th Victoires de la Musique ceremony.[22]

In 2021, Suzane published a reissue of Toï Toï,[23] which features new singles, including "Pendant 24 h" with Grand Corps Malade[24] and "La Vie dolce" with DJ Feder.[25] During the next few months, she continues with the tour while composing new songs for her second album, Caméo , released on November 4, 2022.[26] Her three promotional singles were "Clit Is Good", " Belladona” and “A ticket pour la Lune”.
