Jacques Higelin

Jacques Higelin (born Jacques Joseph Victor Higelin on 18 October 1940 in Brou-sur-Chantereine, Seine-et-Marne, France; died 6 April 2018 in Paris) was a French pop singer who rose to prominence in the early 1970s. Early in his career, many of Higelin's songs were effectively blacklisted from French radio because of his controversial left wing political beliefs, and his association with socialist groups. He and his wife, Kuelan, are the parents of three children, including musician Arthur H. and actor Ken Higelin.
