Cécile Jean-Louis (7 January 1918 – 27 March 2014), better known by her stage name Moune de Rivel, was a French singer-songwriter, musician and actress.[1]
Moune de Rivel was born in Bordeaux to Guadeloupean parents: her father was Henri Jean-Louis Baghio'o, a French magistrate, and her mother was Fernande de Virel, daughter of the Count of Virel and musician. She had two brothers, Edward and Victor.[2]
She chose "Moune de Rivel" as her stage name by reversing her mother's surname.[3]
Moune de Rivel died in 2014 in Paris[4] and is buried at the Montparnasse Cemetery.[5]
