All of us carry a piece of where we're from with us, but these parcels of fallow land often - in a uniquely mysterious way - become the prey that nourishes our aspirations.

Agnès Gayraud - a refined thinker by day that transforms into la Féline at night - left Tarbes many years ago in search of greener pastures.

After making a name for herself with Adieu l'Enfance (2014), Triomphe (2017), and Vie Future (2019), the author and musician has evolved once again.

Her latest release Tarbes reinvents the circle of life and challenges our preconceived notions.

She welcomes us to her hometown with sweet and clear melodies over the backdrop of an electronic hum, reminiscent of Mark Twain classic Tom Sawyer.
