Quebec, Canada (1999 – present)
Jorane (pronounced “jo-ran”), is a pseudonym of Johanne Pelletier (b. 1975, Quebec, Canada), a French-Canadian singer / cellist. She is known for an avant-garde style, with a typically chamber / orchestral instrument, and an ability to sing whilst playing cello. Pelletier débuted with the album “Vent fou” (1999, Tacca Musique) and her latest is “Une Sorcière Comme Les Autres” (Feb 2011, Vega Musique).
Jorane’s cello style has been compared to Tori Amos’ piano. She has worked with Sarah McLachlan, amongst others.
Other discography includes: “The You and the Now” (2004, Aquarius), reached a more international audience; “Canvas or Canvass?” (2006, Tacca Musique), initially exclusive to her website and “Vers à Soi” (Oct 2007, Tacca Musique - aka “Vers A Soi”), with completely French lyrics, intimate vocals and the cello relatively abated - resulting in one of her most experimental albums.

I'm not too sure about the new album. I mean, it's nice and all, but I just feel like the emphasis is not on the cello as much as in the previous albums. That wouldn't necessarily have to be a bad thing, but I just really enjoyed that part of her music. Still, it's good enough :)

Superbe performance offert par Jorane hier au Francofolie de Montréal. Jorane était simplement superbe, présente, enjouée, généreuse, ... avec l'Orcheste Symphonique du Grand Montréal c'était simplement enivrant.

avant-garde would apply to her newest album as well. It seems her newest one is the least popular.. :/ its so great though. Its so hard to classify her, this discussion could go on forever..

Just out of interest, what genre has everyone else put her music under? I'm finding it hard to classify this music in iTunes, but I don't want to leave it with no genre.
