Katell Keineg (born February 1965), is a Breton-Welsh singer-songwriter, based in Wales. ==Early life== Born in Brittany and raised first there and later in the Rhymney Valley, Katell Keineg is the second child and only daughter of Breton poet and playwright Paol Keineg and his then wife, Judith Pritchard (née Gurney), a Welsh political activist. Both parents were active in their nations' respective autonomy movements, Judith with Plaid Cymru, Paol with the UDB. The family moved to Wales where, exposed to Breton and Welsh folk music, Katell began singing, mainly in choirs and eisteddfodau. Early influences included The Beatles and Led Zeppelin. She has cited The Song Remains the Same as influential; she watched it in the same year she began busking in Cardiff, which led to travels around the United Kingdom and Ireland playing at ad hoc gigs and festivals. After taking a law degree at the London School of Economics, she lived briefly in Cardiff and, at age 24, moved to Dublin, having particularly come to enjoy the city and its ambiences. From the early 90s onwards, Katell travelled back and forth between Dublin and New York, where she made her first two albums for Elektra Records. She is now based in Wales. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Katell Keineg」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
