History

Diridollou, Lavigne and Le Guillou met during their studies at

fest-noz festivals in 2018, and took part in the 2018 edition of the Inter-Celtic Festival of Lorient with the band Eben.[5]

In the summer of 2021, they met singer and producer

Alvan in a bar in Rennes.[1] Together, they participated in Eurovision France, c'est vous qui décidez ! 2022 ("Eurovision France, you decide ! 2022"), the French national selection for the Eurovision Song Contest 2022, with the song "Fulenn".[5] They went on to win the competition, winning both the jury vote and televote.[2] "Fulenn" was the first Eurovision entry to be sung in Breton since 1996.[6]
