Hanna Vasylieva La Folie Douce Avoriaz

hanna vasylieva

singer

Originally from Ukraine, Anna has always had a strong passion for music. Early on, she pursued her musical interests by obtaining a degree in Art and Culture from the University of Kiev, specializing as a vocal artist.

"My musical journey truly began at 18 when I became the lead singer of a female pop group (18PLS). After parting ways with the group, I delved into studio work and had the opportunity to write songs internationally for several years.

In 2020, I established my stage name (Ana Va) and quickly released my first music video. That same year, I gained recognition on television by participating in popular Ukrainian shows such as "X-Factor" and "The Voice". In 2021, along with Jake, I founded the project "DVOE," which gradually became viral in Ukraine."

However, the war in Ukraine prompted a significant change in Anna's life. She made the decision to relocate to Germany and embarked on a new musical journey in Europe. Joining us for the entire winter season, Anna continues to expand her projects across Europe! Her captivating stage presence adds a unique and enchanting touch to our team!

Kaeve La Folie Douce Avoriaz

kaeve

singer

As a songwriter, composer, and performer, Kaeve has developed a distinct stage persona, blending elements of Folk, Country, Pop, Variety, French Chanson, Soul, and Gospel into her unique musical universe.

"From my childhood, I was immersed in music with my father's jazz and soul vinyl records. From there, I developed an unconditional love for song. Being self-taught, I initially thought that being an artist was reserved for those who appeared on TV!

It was through meeting my teacher and mentor, Stéphanie Dumouch, that I realized my obsession with music and the power of conveying emotions through my voice.

Whether in orchestras or in solo, I've explored various musical genders through wonderful opportunities: I've supported Ben l'Oncle Soul as a backing vocalist, appeared on television shows (such as Nouvelle Star), and performed on magnificent stages at beautiful theaters and festivals."

For Kaeve, La Folie Douce offers a completely new and unparalleled experience!

Diana La Folie Douce Avoriaz

diana

violonist

Diana comes to us from Ukraine, specifically from the small town of Yalta on the shores of the Black Sea. For our violinist, music has always been a calling:

"I was 5 years old when I first touched a violin. Since that day, I have never stopped playing! I had the opportunity to work with excellent teachers who helped me develop my skills at the age of 7. At that time, one of my favorite pastimes was turning on the radio, improvising along with the music, and feeling the passion of the moment!

By the age of 8, I started participating in competitions, which introduced me to the world of shows and musical tours in solo, an experience that remains exceptional to this day!" After intense studies at the Conservatory, Diana continues to expand her singing and music skills by joining vocal groups, collaborating with other violinists, and performing in various venues. Her classical music background doesn't prevent her from exploring jazz and pop genres!”

At La Folie Douce, her gentleness adds a magical touch to après-ski!

Lleeroy La Folie Douce Avoriaz

lleeroy

chanteur

For the second consecutive year, Lleeroy has joined the artistic team at La Folie Douce, bringing his unique touch and distinctive voice to the group!

Fresh off Season 11 of The Voice France, where he shone brightly under the guidance of Amel Bent, Lleeroy exudes a contagious energy that marks him as a rising star.

"I started singing around the age of 15. Initially destined for a nursing career, my path in music became clear with the arrival of Covid. I was participating in singing competitions and started gaining traction on social media, where I built a small community. It was the audience reactions that encouraged me to continue pursuing music!

The Voice contacted me via TikTok, I went through the auditions, and I appeared on the show. After an incredible journey that allowed me to establish myself in the music industry, my time on the show ended just before the semi-finals.

After that, I performed countless concerts with my band, collaborated with other artists at events, filled in with orchestras, and even had several international gigs!

For a second year in a row, here I am on the stage of La Folie Douce for the entire winter

Jake La Folie Douce Avoriaz

jake

singer

Jake also comes from Ukraine, specifically from the city of Feodossiia. From a young age, he was immersed in music, particularly singing.

"When I was about 3 years old, I already had the habit of grabbing my father's Michael Jackson vinyl from his collection. Today, the record is still intact and continues to be played!

Later on, I became passionate about watching music videos and concerts. I would run around the house with a comb in hand, dreaming that one day I would also perform on a big stage."

After completing his studies, Jake fully embraced his artistic side by participating in various popular TV shows in Ukraine such as "The Voice" and "X-Factor." Through these experiences, he gained valuable expertise and found numerous opportunities to perform in different countries. Together with Ana, he co-founded the project "DVOE."

His big heart and unique talent make him a truly touching artist!

Apolline La Folie Douce Avoriaz

apolline

singer

Apolline is the ball of energy within the team! At just 24 years old, she comes to us straight from Lyon. After living all around the world during her childhood, she returned to France to find her path.

"As a child, I've always loved music. It was at the age of 4 that my parents realized I could sing when I started humming 'I'm Outta Love' in the car."

Since that day, Apolline has never stopped singing. After pursuing studies in international commerce and marketing, she decided to follow her passion for music.

"I started out in music by doing covers, and then I had the opportunity to work with a songwriter, which led to the release of my first EP. I then tried to approach labels to find funding for a new creative project. Eventually, I decided to take on the project independently by creating my own artistic direction! During this time, I continued to audition for various roles and realized projects in France and internationally."

For Apolline, La Folie Douce represents a new challenge, one that she particularly cherishes!

Adrian La Folie Douce Avoriaz

adrian

saxophonist

Adrian is a saxophonist and performer hailing from Lyon. Since a young age, Adrian has been immersed in music, later developing a passion for the saxophone. His House, Jazz, and Hip Hop style, combined with his love for the party scene, make him a true stage artist who knows how to set the mood wherever he plays.

"As a child, I started making music by banging on pots and pans until I exhausted my parents, who then decided to send me to the conservatory. Today, whether it's summer or winter, I have the opportunity to travel across France and Europe to play in restaurants, nightclubs, private events, festivals, and much more... I've had the chance to perform in highly esteemed venues such as Nikki Beach in Montenegro, which hosts top names in the scene throughout the summer season."

La Folie Douce holds no secrets for him! After several seasons in Avoriaz, Chamonix, and numerous gigs in Méribel-Courchevel, he's back this winter for even wilder après-ski parties at La Folie Douce in Avoriaz!

Moody La Folie Douce Avoriaz

moody

dj

Moody is resident DJ at La Folie Douce in Avoriaz. He joined La Folie Douce in Avoriaz after a successful season at La Folie Douce in Val d'Isère, where he stood out for his boundless energy and wild sets! His influence in House music has also made him shine in highly esteemed establishments such as Nikki Beach in Saint Tropez and Montenegro.

It all started in 2014 when Moody decided to pursue the path of UCPA, the DJ school in Lyon. It was here that he honed his skills under the guidance of some of the biggest names in the national and international music scene:

"My passion for music and the DJ profession started at a young age. At around 6 or 7 years old, I used to play with my parents' hi-fi speakers. I would set them up on my desk, color the light bulbs in my room to create my own disco, and blast the music while pretending to mix. Looking back, it was inevitable!"

Moody is with us for the entire season, and he's more than ready to make our après-ski parties absolutely FOLIE!
