Grand Gamin + James Stewart + Trans Orient Express
We’ll be celebrating Grand Gamin‘s debut album on Friday 29 April at Le Périscope!
A globe-trotting musician, Grand Gamin celebrates irreverence, wonder and mischief, sad joy and happy melancholy. After a string of collaborations (Slow Joe, Thomas Fersen, Buridane, Obi Bora…), Cédric de la Chapelle is returning to his first love: writing and singing. On his own.
And it’s with great fanfare that he celebrates this solitary reunion: strengthened by his encounters, he creates refined pop songs with rich and varied influences.
Words and their meanings are at the heart of his work. In French, always simple. Like a big, lonely kid, sometimes amazed, sometimes disillusioned, he takes a questioning, loving, offbeat look at the world. Alone on stage, armed with a guitar, a synthesiser and a virtual choir, Grand Gamin faces himself as well as the audience.
Programme for this release party:
- Grand Gamin (live)
- DJ James Stewart – music from the Black Atlantic
- Trans Orient Express – dancefloor machine improv with Lucas MS20 + open mic We Are The New Generation
- Peter The Moon – video projections
Concert in partnership with Marché Gare to support this Lyon-based artist, who took up residency there in February.
