New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Neighbourhood PR) Mahaut Mondino was born in Paris quite literally into the art world, her father being an acclaimed photographer, and mother a stylist.
"Parisian Mahaut Mondino's voice hurdles between octaves with enviable ease, making sounds that will make bats fall out of the sky if you play it out loud..." Vice Noisey
When starting to take music seriously in her teens, the international brand L'Orèal was one of the first major entities to commission her to make original music for their perfume brand Cacharel. A few compositions later, fashion house Yves Saint Laurent and the global Mama Shelter Hotel chain asked Mahaut to create music for their brands as well. Last year saw production duo Supreme Cuts from Chicago ask her to sing two original tracks over their music, one of which, "Gone", ended up as lead track off their recently released album "Divine Ecstasy".
Pitchfork had the following to say...
"Brown Flowers" is case in point: in allowing a stunning vocal from French singer Mahaut Mondino to soak up the spotlight, Supreme Cuts end up with easily the album's best song..." Pitchfork
