Louis Romégoux is a Sheffield-born Anglo-French folk musician, who in 2010 swapped the steel city for the south of Austria, before returning to Sheffield a decade later in 2020. 

Over the last 18 years Louis has toured extensively throughout Europe, playing festivals to critical acclaim and gaining a reputation as an impressive live performer in the clubs and bars of central Europe and beyond. Drawing on influences from both sides of the channel, as well as a few from across that larger Atlantic pond, Louis sound captures the essence of folk in its raw, free flowing form. Encompassing ever-expanding boundaries, the fluidity and freedom of Louis music keep his live performances fresh and exciting every time.

In his time as a solo and band musician Louis has gigged with the likes of John Smith, Teddy Thompson, Slow Club, Denis Jones, John Fairhurst, Liz Green, The Reverend, Ed Prosek and more.  His recent festival appearances include Riba Rocks (Spain), Sound of the Forest (Germany), plus an Italy tour and an appearance at the legendary Ronnie Scott’s in London in June 2013. He also sang in a Sheffield-based band called Watch This Fire Spread and was both a boy chorister and then later a choral scholar with Sheffield Cathedral Choir. Louis is currently working with the Viennese composer Alfred Polansky on "Songs between heaven and hell - the Malcolm Lowry project", a collection of Malcom Lowry's poetry set to music by Polansky. A release date and a series of concerts are planned for autumn/winter 2017.

He has self-released three EPs and one mini-album. His new mini-album "Solo" (released 2016), plus his last two EPs ‘Letters’ (released spring 2013) and 'Milou' (released spring 2014) are both available on iTunes, Spotify, GooglePlay and Amazon. He will be touring in early 2017 to promote the new mini-album "Solo".
