"Autopilote" / "Pumper"

Living on autopilot can feel like being trapped in a snowstorm, isolated and numb. Through playful metaphors like an inner pilot and a drumming 'Belly Joe,' the singer turns vulnerability into creative exploration. Her music shifts between French and English, blending emotional honesty with humor and rhythm. By naming fears and inner chaos, she shows how art can help navigate and heal our inner worlds.
