Grand Corps Malade

Grand Corps Malade hits the road again in 2027 with his clear, no-nonsense slam. A writer and performer with precise diction, he weaves everyday tales, stories of friendship and feeling, portraits that take their time. His pen plays with rhythm, silence and imagery, supported by spare arrangements where piano, percussion and electronic touches make room for the words. On stage, the atmosphere is light without being forced, alternating spoken-sung numbers and spoken interludes, with a tight-knit band and sound production attentive to nuance.

This concert features recent pieces alongside songs that marked his early career, offering a journey through his repertoire that puts the writing front and center. Grand Corps Malade stops at the Zénith de Rouen in Le Grand-Quevilly on December 10, 2027, as part of a tour taking him through France, Switzerland and Belgium. It’s an opportunity to reconnect with his measured voice, his lucid chronicles and that direct way of creating intimacy with the room—without superfluous effects, simply through the power of the text and the tempo of emotion.
