2018: The Voice

Maëlle's musical career started in 2017, when she submitted a video audition for the seventh edition of the French version of The Voice and became a contestant.[1][8][9][10]

At her blind audition, she performed Guillaume Grand's "Toi et moi", accompanying herself on piano.[1] Three of the four judges, Florent Pagny, Zazie, and Mika turned their chairs. Maëlle chose Zazie as her coach.[11][12][13][8][14][9][10]

For the final audition, she sang Chris Isaak's "Wicked Game".[15][16][17][18][19][13][20][9]

During the duels, Maëlle battled Gulaan singing Sting's "Fragile", and it was her who Zazie chose to advance to the live rounds.[3][8][21][9][22]

During the first live round, she sang Korgis' "Everybody's Got to Learn Sometime" and was "saved" by the public.[13] In the quarterfinals, she sang London Grammar's "Wasting My Young Years" and was "saved" by the public.[13]

In the semifinal, she sang France Gall's "Diego libre dans sa tête" and was chosen by the public for the final over B. Demi Mondaine.[23][9]

In the final held on 12 May 2018, Maëlle performed first Harry Styles' "Sign of the Times", then Vianney's "Je m'en vais" in duo with him, and finally Michel Berger's "Seras-tu là" in duo with Zazie.[4][24][25] She won the final with 55,3 % of the public vote, becoming the first female and, at 17 years of age, the youngest candidate to ever win the French talent show.[4][24][26][27]

On 14 July 2018, in Louhans, Maëlle gave her first public concert.[6]

2019: First single and first album

On 5 April 2019, Maëlle released her first single. Titled "Toutes les machines ont un cœur",[28][29] it was composed by Calogero (who also produced the recording), with lyrics by Zazie.[7][30] Three days before her BAC (in Social & Economics Sciences, or SES), she was in Barcelona shooting the music video for this song.[31][7] Directed by Nur Casadevall, it premiered on YouTube on 29 July 2019.[32][33]

On 6 September 2019, Maëlle released (on YouTube) a music video for a live version of another track from her forthcoming album, a song titled "L'Effet de masse".[34] The song entered the French download chart at number 68 (during the week of 13 September).[35]

On 23 September 2019, she released (on YouTube) a music video for yet another new song from her upcoming album, "Le Pianiste des gares".[36][37]
