Sébastien Tellier (FR)
ECLECTIC POP WITH AN ELECTRONIC HEARTBEAT
Sébastien Tellier is a key figure in French pop music. For over two decades, the multi-instrumentalist has been moving confidently between French Touch, pop, folk, and electronic music with his charismatic voice. His sound is sensual, eccentric, elegant, and always full of surprises. Songs like “La Ritournelle,” “L’amour et la violence,” “Divine,” and “Roche” have long since become modern classics.
With his latest album, “Kiss The Beast,” released in January 2026, Sébastien Tellier once again demonstrates just how difficult it is to pigeonhole him. It’s a dazzling self-portrait: maximalist, vulnerable, playful, and full of contradictions. “Naïf de Coeur” in particular captures Tellier’s essence. A song about tenderness, melancholy, and the fragile soul behind the beard, sunglasses, and dandyish pose.
Live, fans can expect an evening blending artful staging, dreamy melancholy, and that unique elegance with which Sébastien Tellier has been crafting his own universe for years.
