Nicoletta

A French singer with a soulful gospel voice, Nicoletta's career has been one of success and eclipse. Nicole Grisoni was born on April 11, 1944 in Vongy, Haute-Savoie (now Thonon-les-Bains). The performer of such hits as "La Musique", "Il est mort le soleil" and " Mamy Blue " also appeared in musicals, and continues to set the stage alight. Performing "Ma vie c'est un manège", "Les Volets clos " and "Fio Maravilla" in the Seventies , Nicoletta made a remarkable comeback the following decade with the duet "Idées noires " with Bernard Lavilliers. After collaborations with William Sheller (the album J'attends, J'apprends went unnoticed in 1995), she went on tour with The Gospel Choir. The 2006 album Rendez-Vous featured Lavilliers and Manu Chao, while 2013's Ici et Ailleurs featured JoeyStarr.
