Line Renaud is a celebrated French singer, actress, and entertainment icon whose career has spanned several decades. Born on July 2, 1928, in Nieppe, France, as Jacqueline Enté, she adopted the stage name Line Renaud after her mentor, the French music hall impresario Louis Gasté, discovered her talent at a young age. Renaud first gained national recognition in the post-war years with her signature song "Étoile des Neiges" and became a popular cabaret and music hall artist. Over the years, she established herself as a mainstay of the French entertainment industry.

Renaud's repertoire extends to theatrics, film, and television, showcasing her flexibility as a performer. However, her contribution to French chanson is particularly noteworthy, with an extensive catalog of songs that embody the mid-century zest and charm. Her recent releases, primarily remasters of her classic hits such as "Ma Cabane au Canada," "La Madelon," and “C'qu'on est bien,” exemplify the timeless quality of her music. Renaud's career has not only been marked by her success as a performer but also by her humanitarian efforts, including her association with charities such as Sidaction, an organization dedicated to the fight against AIDS, which she co-founded. Her enduring legacy as a cherished figure in French culture is augmented by the remastered collections of her timeless classics, continuing to enchant both old and new generations of listeners around the world.
