Her voice is unique and powerful; her lyrics are glamorous and deep. There is so much more to be said, yet it wouldn&#8217;t do justice to these bright talent.

Now in her early thirties, she projects the image of who she&#8217;s strived to become: an assertive artist embracing her femininity. But behind her alluring smile and retro princess look, there is a fearsome Rock &#8216;n&#8217; Roll singer with an enchanting voice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-align:center\">It All Started with Love<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Haylen is borne out of the love of a Persian father and a French mother. From her father, an actor and political refugee, who fled Iran during the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Iranian_Revolution\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Revolution<\/a> in pursuit of freedom of expression, she inherited his intensity and resiliance. From her mother, Haylen takes her generosity, her beauty, her elegance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the tender age of seven, Haylen enrolls into the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.conservatoiredeparis.fr\/en\/accueil\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Conservatoire<\/a> to learn violin; she quickly becomes hooked to 1950s Rock &#8216;n&#8217; Roll (Elvis Presley, Wanda Jackson, Etta James), 1960s-1970s (Aretha Franklin, Betty Davis, Marvin Gaye) as well the Hip Hop and Trip Hop sounds of the 1990s (Portishead, Erykah Badu, Jill Scott).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-align:center\">The Turning Point<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>She then picked up and honed her guitar skills on the street from adolescence, <a href=\"https:\/\/rockatnight.com\/2018\/09\/haylen-the-golden-voice-of-a-princess-rising-from-the-subway\/ target=\">playing the subway<\/a>, underground showcases, and jams all over Paris. It is in those testing grounds that she meets Simon Truxillo and Andrew Mazingue, who will bring so much to her life (through their friendship) and music (through their arrangements).

The four coaches <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=NIYm646TWA4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">turned around almost instantly<\/a>; Haylen conquered a new audience and learned to manage the stress of performing in front of 6 million television viewers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Haylen then took on the  leading female role in &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=hZ7RlMtyz8Y\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Le Rouge et le Noir<\/a>&#8220;, a rock-opera produced by Albert Cohen and  co-written by Zazie. Every evening, for four months, Haylen was onstage delivering her lines and songs with aplomb.

With no TV in boarding school and a close friend working at a CD store, you bet Yoshi's already huge appetite for music was bound to grow beyond bounds. From there it's felt like feeding a stomach with no limits. Now Yoshi eats, speaks, drinks and sleeps music...

And if you get to understand this unique language then who knows what type of universe you might discover beyond the music! Yoshi is one, Wraith is all...
