From reinvented acoustics to warm analog synths, Colleen explores minimalism, avant-pop, and new sonic textures
French artist Cécile Schott aka Colleen is fearless in her willingness to explore new sounds and new ways of creating music as a solo performer. Over the course of eight critically acclaimed albums released between 2003 and 2023, she has consistently reinvented herself, first by taking acoustic instruments out of their usual context and pushing the boundaries of their playability, then through avant-pop electronic explorations. She now dedicates herself to her own unique brand of warm analog synthesis, and on 20th March 2026 will release her 9th album (and 5th for Thrill Jockey) Libres antes del final.
Equally happy on stage as in the studio, over the past 23 years Colleen has given more than 260 concerts worldwide in prestigious venues (Public Records, Kings Place, Silent Green, La Casa Encendida, L’Auditori…) and acclaimed festivals (Big Ears, Moogfest, Mutek, Le Guess Who, Transmediale, Rewire…).
