BASTIEN LALLEMANT + MOCKE #

10.09.2024, 20:00 Uhr, Stadtgarten Köln (Green Room)

Tickets

Born in Dijon, Bastien Lallemant has achieved a feat that entire generations of songwriters in France have failed at. He has managed to combine the heart of Georges Brassens with the elegance of Serge Gainsbourg. Since his second album ‘Les érotiques’ at the latest, the guitarist and singer has been one of the most important representatives of the Parisian neo-chanson scene. His particular strengths are his warm voice, his romantic tone and his unique poetic melodiousness. Together with the language, he creates a sound that is immediately accessible to everyone, even without any previous knowledge of French. These are chansons with impact: tender, caressing, penetrating and infectious. His new album ‘La paresse’ celebrates idleness, love and passion in a particularly voluptuous way. The ideal complement not only on this wonderful record but also today as a congenial stage partner: Jérôme Dépret aka Mocke, once guitarist and songwriter of the now legendary band Holden. Mocke accentuates and colours Lallemant's melodies like an electro-acoustic painter with a guitar instead of a brush. Together, Lallemant and Mocke not only interpret ‘La paresse’ but also songs from the previous albums ‘Le verger’, ‘La maison haute’ and ‘Danser les filles’.

A safe bet for fans of Dominique A, Françoiz Breut, Albin de la Simone, Holden, Fredda and Barbara Carlotti.

Coline Rio #

‘Ce qu'il restera de nous’ (2023) is the title of one of the most beautiful French debut albums of recent years and it comes from the 26-year-old singer and pianist Coline Rio from Nantes. You can hear her musicality in every note. The piano lessons she received at the age of 6 have left their mark on her, as has her past as a singer and songwriter in the Nantes indie band Inüit. Her emotional, intense style not only impresses audiences but also established colleagues such as Albin de la Simone, Voyou and Zaho de Sagazan, with whom she recently recorded an EP.

"Fredda makes the most beautiful and sensual chansons far and wide."
(Anna-Bianca Krause, WDR Cosmo)

"Musically, "Phosphène" is a big step forward."
(Ullrich Maurer, gaesteliste.de)

"The forward momentum of "Vent diable" or "Long" and the off-the-cuff groove of "Viens avec moi" go straight into the blood. "
(Frank Lähnemann, Rolling Stone)

"Fine album by one of the most interesting voices in nouvelle chanson. Record of the month."
(Thomas Bohnet, Le Tour)

"The melodies, coupled with the allusive poetry of the lyrics, create a balance between melancholy and happiness, departure and retreat, nature and intimacy. Beguiling."
(Loop Magazin)

"Light-hearted, spontaneous, easy-going and full of verve and energy."
(3Sat Kulturzeit)
