Isabelle Geffroy

Zaz is a French singer who fans have dubbed "the second Edith Piaf." The performer's mesmerizing voice has a soft hoarseness, and the magic of French attracts the attention of more and more fans to the artist's work.

The vocalist's real name is Isabelle Geffroy. The girl was born on May 1, 1980 in a town called Tour. The future star spent her childhood in the French province. Her family was no different from many others. My father worked in the energy field, and my mother was a teacher. Parents raised two more children: brother and sister Zaz.

From childhood, the girl was lively and agile. It was difficult for her to sit still, and the spirit of confrontation made itself felt from her youth. It so happened that it was the music and vocals that provided Isabelle with the opportunity to splash out energy. At 4 years old, Zaz told her parents that she wanted to become a singer, so at 5 she was sent to a children's music school. For the next 6 years, Isabelle regularly attended classes, learned to play the instruments and sing in the choir.

Zaz's educational system was neglected. She received the pleasure of learning only performing in the choir, and the teachers noted the amazing power of the girl's voice. The emotional color that Isabelle's vocals gave to the compositions was sincere and genuine. During this period, the girl was going through difficult times. There were many conflicts in her family, her parents were planning to divorce. Frequent quarrels and scandals led to the fact that the Geffroy family was destroyed. Zaz was 9 years old.

Together with her mother, Isabelle moved to Bordeaux and began to attend local singing courses. She also began to study kung fu. Immersed in her favorite pastime, the girl showed lack of assembly in a comprehensive school. The teachers, after consulting, left her for the second year. Zaz was 15 years old, and she understood well enough what she wanted so as not to waste time on repeating the program. The girl left school and moved from mother to sister.

To make a living, Isabelle got a job in a small restaurant, where she worked as a waitress and a dishwasher. She did not leave her studies and was true to her dream, and luck loves the patient. When the girl was 20 years old, she received a scholarship from the CIAM Music School. Music became her top priority.

A year later, Zaz became a member of the blues band "Fifty fingers". She combined collaboration with musicians with work in other teams. In an interview, the artist speaks warmly of the Don Diego group, with which she performed at that time. The girl tried herself in different genres: pop, jazz, rock.

Zaz had a sense of potential and strong ambitions. This prompted the girl to move to Paris. At first she performed in small cabarets and clubs. The artist, whose spirit has always strived for freedom in life, manifested itself in creativity in a similar format. The four walls of the piano bars were cramped for her, and Isabelle went out into the street to perform her songs.

Together with several friends, the girl settled on the Place des Hill in Paris and began to perform her favorite compositions. She did this not out of need, but at the behest of her heart. Songs Zaz performed heartily, so passers-by generously paid for her efforts.

The turning point in his creative biography was the acquaintance with producer Carredin Soltani. In 2007, the artist found on the vastness of social networks an announcement of a manager looking for a singer with a husky voice. Zaz managed to pass the competition and defeat 300 opponents who applied for this place. The song, which the girl recorded under the direction of Soltani, was the hit "Je veux". The producer wrote the lyrics for him with his own hand.

Zaz became recognizable in Paris, but the question of permanent employment remained open. This prompted the singer to collaborate with the rap group "Le4P" and solo musicians. She began touring with concerts. The girl's life was turned upside down by a competition for young artists, the prize in which was the shooting of a video and recording an album. Isabelle won the competition.

Her debut album had been in preparation for over a year, and now she has toured countries like Japan, Morocco, Egypt and Russia. In 2010, the single "Je veux" topped all music charts in Europe. He quickly acquired the status of gold, and later diamond. Zaz received the "Best Artist of the Year" award.

At the concerts, the girl performed original compositions, as well as the immortal hits of French chansonniers: Charles Aznavour, Serge Gainsbourg, Patricia Kaas, Mireille Mathieu and others. The press quickly dubbed the artist "the second Edith Piaf". Her photos flashed on the pages of glossy magazines, and the name was now known outside the European Union.

In 2013, Zaz released their second album, Recto Verso. The popularity of the singer at home does not subside over the years. The vocalist is hard at work recording new albums. In 2014, fans warmly accepted the disc titled "Paris", and in 2018, the singer presented "Effet mirroir". Isabel continues to visit different countries with concerts.

Zaz is not covered in the press about his personal life. The performer prefers not to voice her marital status and romantic relationships. It is known that Isabelle was married for some time. Her husband was a young man from Colombia.

The celebrity speaks warmly of their relationship and sometimes talks about her spouse's trip to her homeland. The wedding of lovers took place in Colombia, where Isabelle met the numerous relatives of the groom.

Marriage turned out to be another adventure for the singer, which is full of her life. The marriage did not last long, and soon Zaz became free again. Children in the union did not appear. Having divorced, the performer plunged headlong into creativity.

At the beginning of 2019, the artist toured Russian cities, including St. Petersburg, Vladivostok, Khabarovsk, Irkutsk and others. In February, Zaz gave a solo concert in Moscow. On the eve of the show, the singer was invited to Channel One to participate in the show "Evening Urgant".

Isabelle answered the host's questions and sang for fans in the studio and on the other side of the screen. The love of fans in Russia for Isabelle does not subside. The compositions "Que Vendra", "Les passants", "Demain c'est toi" still excite the hearts of lovers of French chanson.

Now, in addition to musical creativity, Zaz is engaged in charity work. For some time she occupied the top lines of the ratings of the richest artists in France, so she decided to make donations to those in need. She directs part of the proceeds from concerts to help the poor and victims of natural disasters, as was the case with the cataclysm in Japan.
