Early life
Originally from Northern France’s industrial region, Ronny left for Paris at the age of 14. Not much is known about that time, except that she was lying about her true age and doing “terrible jobs”. Later in her young life Ronny took dancing classes and became a model.
Career
Musical style
Ronny’s music is of an own kind. Synthpop, though strongly reminiscent of the style of the 20s cabaret of the Weimar Republic style. But it was actually not the music that made Ronny so unique, it was rather her voice and style: “Her voice is awesome, but what really inspires me is her interesting style. She managed to look masculine, sensual, posh, new romantic, Parisian – all at the same time. If she doesn’t inspire you with all that beauty & style, then I don’t know what does.
Early musical projects
In 1980 Ronny and her alliance with the Blitz scene meet Rusty Egan at the Parisian club Privilege and he introduced her to the London Blitz Kids movement. After moving to London, Ronny soon became an omni-present guest in the Blitz Club and in the music of the New Romantics generally. She appeared on album covers and in several video clips.
But Ronny didn’t only show her pretty face, she was also actively making music. Although she collaborated with renowned musicians such as Midge Ure, Vangelis, Steve Strange, Rusty Egan, Zaine Griff and Yukihiro Takahashi, she only left us with a handful of songs.
