I am a recent fan of Pomme but she very quickly jumped at one of my very favorite artists. Her real name is Claire Pommet and her stage name is Pomme which means Apple in french. She is 25 yo, from Lyon in France, and is multi-talented : amazing voice, great instrumentalist (she plays guitar, autoharp, piano, cello, vocoder, banjo, synthetizer, …), and she composed and wrote most of her songs. 2 songs from her first album are from her and she composed/wrote ALL her songs in the second album "Les Failles". She erupted on the french musical scene about 5 years ago, and has released 2 albums so far, working on the release of the 3rd one. She is getting a lot of recognition in France, she has won the Best Newcomer Album award in Les Victoires de la musique 2020 (France music award ceremony) and she has won the Best Female Artist award in the 2021 edition. She starts to be recognized on the international scene as well: - Aurora is a fan of her (Pomme also is a fan of Aurora) and Pomme was the first featuring on an Aurora album (wonderful duet called "Everything matters") and they started a nice friendship, we can expect some additional collab in the future. - Billie Eilish also stated she is a fan: when she was on french TV, she talked about Pomme and ask Pomme to text her so they can get in touch. Later Pomme said they did. Again Pomme is a fan of Billie and made a very beautiful french cover of Bad Guy. She plays autoharp since she is 14 yo, she explained she discovered this instrument as an absolute fan of the folk and country music ( fan of Joan Baez, Dolly Parton, ...) She defines her music as Authentic, Acoustic and Sad. She said there is always hope in her songs however. For some of her songs, hope is visible at the surface and some others, you have to dig down. Her lyrics are poetic, she loves to leave room for personal interpretation and reinterpretation. This is something she discussed with Aurora recently in a live stream and they were both in the same direction here (as for many other things BTW). You can check this incredible conversation (in english, after the first couple minutes from Pomme in french): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mOQWFUkXrM0.html - .

Great reaction, You just witnessed two great artists and twin souls creating magic. Yes the last section was in French and Pomme wrote it per Aurora request. Pomme contacted Aurora a couple years ago for a collab that did not happen. But for her last album Aurora contacted Pomme back for this song. This is the first featuring on one Aurora’s album. The album version is less beautiful than this live: due to pandemic, they could not meet live in time so Pomme couldn’t do the harmonies for the recording ; she only recorded her voice for the french section. Aurora recorded the harmonies in layers. But they finally met for the first time for this live recorded in paris a few months ago. You can see that their voices complement and blend perfectly here. And there is a livestream where both discuss and you see also a strong human connection and the birth of a friendship. Pomme is also a complete package ( singer / instrumentalist / songwriter/ composer) and you see here just a very limited piece of her huge vocal range ( she excels at high notes also) and beautiful vocal tone. I will post a separate comment with more details about her. If you react to some of her songs, you will be mind blown I bet 😀
Pomme is almost like a French version of Aurora, they are similar in many ways and almost the same age (Aurora is 1.5 months older). I don't really know Pomme, but I doubt she is quite as magical as Aurora, but you never know, but she a great singer though. They did not meet in real life until a few days or maybe hours before this performance, they recorded the song for the album separately. Here are 2 shorts of them meeting and behind the scenes for this performance (48sec and 26sec): youtu . be / rLRbQfrBCyU youtu . be / tDLcB3jfXGw
Super vocal control , Thanx for the Request birthday-girl , keep uhm comming Highly Thanx for your dedication towards your RU-vid channel and discord family. Realy liked this song a lot.
This is a masterpiece. Probably the one I have listened to the most on the Album. The whole Album is fantastic. Expected nothing less from Miss Aurora.
This is like Chanson (a song-like musical genre rooted in French culture, which is characterized by a singer and instrumental accompaniment. Already in the Middle Ages there was a popular genre with the name Chanson.)
COme on man, you scared us at 1.30, I feared for your heart man! This duet is something of the best I've heared from Aurora. And what a great discovery Pomme is, her voice is fantastic --> those harmonies! Everyone, check out Eric Sicard's comment on Pomme below!
This is better than basically anything has any business being. There are several songs on this new album that take every group they play on the radio for the last two decades and leave their wasted and broken remains by the roadside. I wasn't familiar with Pomme previously, but her vocals in French are absolutely luscious, and her voice goes so well with Aurora's. But seriously, listening to songs like this eliminates all interest I have in listening to conventional/mainstream music.
Shit bro took some time for you to get to this one These two ladies make Magic and the song is a masterpiece the music the lyrics and the arrangement pay attention to the piano it sounds so French Two beautiful young ladies man we're so fucking lucky Check sweet Pomme she's one of her kind both of them Aurora is the Queen....... absolutely!
Although there's been no video released for it yet, Aurora just released "Your Blood" as a single. It's different, I like it, but what do you think? Checkitout!
