We will notably remember the grace of Melissa Mars, magnificent in Aloysia, Mozart's first love, and whose magical solo song "Bim Bam Boum" is undoubtly one of our favorites.
Tinker Bell transformed
by Tim Burton.
Mars is driven to make her mark like Serge Gainsbourg and his contemporaries did in the 60s.
SONGWRITER
I started to write when I was a teenager. Stories first. Then one day three words knocked in my head that sounded like a song: Papa M'Aime Pas. They inspired my first single signed by my mom and lyricist, Lilas Klif. When we started working on my second album, she encouraged me and gave me the confidence to write my own songs. Then I have been blessed to have the trust of record labels such as Polydor-Universal, Wagram, Coca-Cola Music... to support my journey as a songwriter.

Slightly twisted, rather well written nursery rhymes that her pop-rock melodies carry effectively.

HIGHLIGHTS & ANECDOTES
THE MUPPETS SHOW
Miss Piggy in my costume...
• I was blessed to be featured on the legendary Muppet Show to perform the duet "1980".
• The Muppets Show's director came up with the idea of Miss Piggy competing with me. She was trying to play my instrument, the keyboard, while I was singing.
• I always had 2 copies of my costume, so, I suggested that she could wear one to compete with me. He loved the idea and called up Disney to ask for permission. Disney said yes!
MOZART THE ROCK OPERA
Award-Winning Hit Musical
• Mozart The Rock Opera, was not only a smash hit musical directed by Olivier Dahan (La Vie en Rose), with over 1,500,000 spectators, it was also a studio album full of #1 hits.
• Like a band, all 6 leads toured across the country and we promoted the songs on major TV shows (TF1, M6...). We received a diamond record (over 500,000 sales) and 3 NRJ Music Awards.
• After 2 successful years, the musical was turned into a symphonic concert with over 60 musicians on stage, we toured in France, Russia, Ukraine, Tunisia.
Featured on the duet hit "1980"
Top #5
• We recorded the hit "1980" in 2006, a duet alongside French pop star P. Obispo; it reached #5 in the charts!
• The music video is an hommage to the 80s: with the band, we are locked in a rubik's cube.
• I had my costume tailor-made by creator Leka, who works for Paco Rabane, Yves Saint-Laurent... We went for an hommage to Madonna and Jean-Paul Gaultier's iconic cones and 80s sailor pattern.
"BEAUTIFUL"
Picked up by Coca-Cola Music
• Coca-Cola Music launched a worldwide campaign to select 52 international artists and songs for their compilation for happiness. I was honored to be one of them.
• The song was inspired by my first time in Michigan where I shot my first American feature film, The Cabining. When the movie wrapped, on the ride back to the airport with composer Steve Sholtes, as we were chatting about a song for the movie soundtrack, I was just so amazed by the beauty of the fall blossoming, that I started humming words and we jammed and created the song "Beautiful".
