With Me  (Sum 41 cover)

Composer, arranger, performer, music director and teacher, I graduate of the 'Université de Montreal' , I have been passionate about everything that resembles music for more than 45 years.

Labobros is an acoustic duo from Italy, consisting of Giuseppe and Pietro Labonia.

Victor Bouzard is a French pianist and composer. Coming from a musical family and a grandfather who was an orchestra conductor, he trained at the conservatory as a violinist, then discovered a passion for the piano as a teenager that he never left. Today at over 50, he decides to share his compositions which have spanned all his years, hence the album Nostalgia, Melancholy and Dreaming were born in 2024. Between some inspirations from jazz, classical or film music, Victor takes us on an emotional journey that connects him to his memories, his encounters and his friendships

I'm a songwriter and lyricist who loves music in all its forms. Growing up surrounded by a wide variety of sounds, from classic rock to R&B, pop, old school soul, hip-hop, foreign music, and beyond—I developed a passion for storytelling through lyrics and poems. I believe every genre has its own magic, and I let that diversity shape my type of sound Whether it's raw emotion, catchy hooks, or sometimes thought-provoking lyrics, my goal is to connect with listeners on all levels.😅

So hit play and join me on a journey through words, rhythm, and heart.🥰🎧🎶

A.I.=YES it's an awesome tool :P

"Song writing is directing people to a doorway of their own emotions"❤️

Songs are my way to express myself, i'm learning and experimenting and trying to enjoy the journey.

I love moody music, i think acoustic songs are undervalued and for me lyrics are more important than anything.
All around happy person

Kitka – a singer-songwriter moving between Germany, Thailand, and the shores of Lake Constance.
My songs are pages from my diary: honest, vulnerable — sometimes filled with longing, sometimes with hope.
Every melody carries a piece of my story — from quiet nights in Konstanz to vibrant evenings in Pattaya.

Music is more than entertainment to me; it’s my outlet, my language, my way of sharing what I carry inside.
You won’t find masks or perfect façades here — only feelings that need to be heard.

💫 Why I’m here
I believe that words and melodies can connect people.
If you recognize yourself in my lyrics, or if a song holds you through a difficult moment, then my music has fulfilled its purpose.
