Jean Marie Cayrecastel, better known by his stage name Jehan (stylized as JeHaN), is a French songwriter and singer born in Montluçon, Allier in 1957. He is recognized as one of the last itinerant songwriters from the Midi region, continuing the rich tradition of the French-speaking troubadour, or trouvère. Jehan's music is deeply rooted in this heritage, and over the years, he has released several albums including *Le cul de ma sœur* (2007), *L'envers de l'ange* (2004), and *Les ailes de Jehan* (1999), showcasing his talent for storytelling and lyricism through song.
Jehan's style is marked by a poetic sensibility and a commitment to preserving a historic form of French musical expression. His recent releases such as "Mamy a fait sa révérence," "Là où la joie se loge," and "Cool Man Nazz" continue to echo his troubadour spirit, blending contemporary songwriting with traditional influences. Fans of heartfelt French chanson and the troubadour lineage find in Jehan a unique voice still alive in the modern era.
