Pussy Cat (Evelyne Courtois) was born on the 14 th june 1948. She stopped studying around the age of 15 to sing and drum for a female band called "Les Petites Souris" (the little mouses) in 1964. Then she started a solo career and got her first success with "Ce n'est pas une vie" (the Small Faces’ song "Sha-la-la-la-lee") in 1966. She also recorded several covers of English tunes: "Stop" , " Si vous avez déjà aimé " ( "Have You Ever Loved Somebody") and original songs she composed until 1969. She said she was a great fan of Tom Jones (Mademoiselle Age Tendre 1967) so she probably chose her pseudo because of one of his songs called " Pussy Cat" edited in 1965.
