to some engaging gavottes, waltzes and plinn.
Either way, you'll be entranced" Dirty Linen

L'écuyer
(trad.)
"Superb
lyrics and melodies.
One of the finest voices of Brittany." Trad Magazine
"One
just has to sit back and bask in this aural beauty. ( )
No one should be surprised if Jolie Vilaine turn out to be
the strongest influence in Breton music this decade."
FolkRoots
"A powerful emotional performance.
This new and dynamic approach to traditional music firmly
rooted
in the east of Brittany has all it takes to win audiences
the world over." Le Télégramme
