“So you are Scottish, aren't you?”
The question people ask me most of the time…
But I'm not : I'm French from East-France exactly.
The history of my family has driven me to the western shores of Europe.
I learned then to love Scotland, Brittany and Ireland, in all their beauties: looking for some strong roots, all the Celtic cultures appeared to me as paths I had to take.
I put on - with a great pleasure and the permanent concern for authenticity - these Celtic musician clothes with Maclewis for artist name (according to my mother's name) : they all became like an authentic second skin.
And my biggest pleasure is in your own pleasure when I share with you the originality of the culture I've received myself.
This is part of my path and why I hesitate a bit when you want to know if I'm Scottish or even Breton.
Well, in a way, I became each one. In which proportion, who cares?
Music belongs to who wants to discover it instead of ignore it.
