About me . . .

Hello, my name is pronounced Eduee(d)ge with the d of dg silent

Though I was born in Paris I have never felt that I belong to any particular country,  culture, religion or philosophy. I have always felt more like a visitor here on Earth, nourishing myself from the various cultures which I encountered, and helping people whom I met along the way.

I first came to England when I was 7 years of age and became instantly an Anglophile. After many visits I decided to make London my (Earthly impermanent) home and I am now  fully British.

I  must have sang  before I spoke, and then wrote my own music to be true to myself. My lyrics reflect what I live and believe. I had almost finished the first year at the university of mathematics, when I decided to follow my yearning for performing, and to continue writing songs. I have performed in clubs both in London and New York.

I am  also the winner of the best  performance (best actor) award  in a short film or documentary at the  2006 Cannes'  raw art Festival  for the film "a day with Edwige "by Aurelie Millet

I enjoy every note I sing and I am very grateful to God for my being blessed with this special gift. But my songs are a better  reflection of myself  and my gratitude to Christ than any explanation,

so I hope you'll enjoy listening to my music as much as I enjoy singing it.

    about my faith

 Since I was 5 years old I had a different  awareness from  people around me and all   I wanted was the truth. I realized that neither those  close  to me , the school, the state nor the society could and would provide it. So I l distanced myself from  what couldn’t lead me to it left all and started my  search ..However I hadn’t any clue on in what shape it would come.

I didn’t believe in God or denied Him as denying something is already recognizing its existence .Furthermore the fewreligions I knew wouldn’t reflect the truth ;being brought up in France I saw Catholicism as evil, Judaism as a corpse ,and  Islam as a repressive political system. Though I found in each of them some beautiful truths, none were able to satiate my quest .I enjoyed the lyricism and poetry of Sufism but neither Hinduism or Buddhism or any philosophy sounded complete.

 I couldn’t fall into the trap of equating  traditions and rituals  with faith  as most do and I lived longing with understanding theroot of  life .At at some point  realized that it couldn’t come from my human nature .At that moment a friend told me about God and though it was associated with some Eastern custom , the concept of a divine being became a reality .I meander spiritually living with God but still not able to define Him .And this until I was given a book .the most beautiful bookI ever read. It was more that just written pages , it was the key that opened the gate of spiritual understanding.The book was “The desire of ages” by Ellen G White.It covers the part of the Bible when Jesus came on earth .It is not only a historical account but also a revelation of the mind of God, His plan and the only way one couldchange oneself the only hope for a man /woman of   salvation.The process of learning started then and  I  studied  the Scriptures  and  realized  that most people in this world ,including Christians ,believed false doctrines or pure fantasy.

The Bible unfolded its truths in the measure I was able to receive them ,progressively ,and the prophecies it contained for 6000 years led to the  present time!

I could follow with history books the events prophesized and their completion and understand the link and reason between them all .

I am still learning and it puts me at odds with many who claim to being with God especially

Christians but are blind to the truth.

We are living such important times and the Bible is very clear about now being the time of the end so present truth is paramount:

Christ asserted that He will come back. All the prophecies from Old and New Testaments point to that event .

Of the ten virgins five are wise and five are foolish. Christ gave us all the signs for us to recognise where we stand and follow His path .

Praise the Lord that we can choose to be among the wise ones !

I feel very privileged and hope that every one alive now can also open to the

wonderful ,enlightening, healing truth of our saviour, redeemer Lord .

He gave me the talent of music and I feel blessed singing every day.
