Les Vieilles Charrues is for the singer Prudence (Olivia Merilahti, revealed in the duo The Dø) the second opportunity to defend on stage "Beginnings", her first solo album, released in May 2021. A record that she presents accompanied by a very largely feminine.

The artist explains to Emilie Mazoyer, on Europe 1, why she made this choice.

INTERVIEW

She was eager to defend on stage the titles of her first solo album: Prudence can finally perform on stage.

The singer (revealed in 2008 when she officiated in the duo The Dø) was Saturday on the stage of the Vieilles Charrues, accompanied by two musicians and a technical team almost entirely made up of women.

The result of both will and chance, as she explains at Emilie Mazoyer's microphone on Europe 1.

"What I wanted is above all to get closer to technicians and to have the most feminine technical team possible. Or at least to have a balance," explains Prudence.

"And finally, I end up with an almost 100% female team. I'm really super spoiled."

"There is a kind of underground network of technicians"

The singer and musician has discovered the sorority that unites shadowy women in the entertainment industry.

“As there are not many girls in the sound and light engineering world, they know each other, they sometimes work together and they know that things are going very well,” she observes.

"So there's kind of an

underground

network

of live technicians."

Same observation on stage, where Prudence is accompanied by musicians Akemi Fujimori and Zoé Hoch. But this time, however, it was not voluntary. “Compared to musicians, it's more of a coincidence,” says the singer. "But I'm the happiest in the world it happened this way."
