Eclectic singer since his beginnings in 2002, Aurélien Merle goes where pleasure leads him. Whether solo with his intimate folk songs (4 albums to date), or in a trio or quartet with humor alongside his colleagues from "Les Goguettes" (3 albums, 1 Olympia, etc.!), or whether it's interpreting William Sheller, Divine Comedy... or immersing himself in the vast repertoire of Brazilian music, he lets himself be guided like a "cork bobbing on the water," as Pierre Barouh depicted.
"From the depths of the Burgundian countryside and under a large willow tree, Aurélien Merle sends out a beautiful album of free folk, soaring above clichés. It's folk, yes, songs in French with wooden guitar. But it's folk that has burned the stool in the fireplace, it's the song of the wanderer and dreamer, discovering crossroads between France and Brazil, Africa, the Orient, even Asia." - LES INROCKS
"Aurélien Merle is one of those specimens that mature slowly and patiently take their place in the landscape. We are far from having heard everything from this Merle." - TELERAMA
