Feu! Chatterton

Feu! Chatterton plays at Paloma in Nîmes on May 13, 2026, bringing their blend of sharp lyricism and musical tension. Centered on Arthur Teboul’s voice, the band sets words in motion over a framework of guitars and keyboards that slips from rock to pop, with electronic touches, all supported by a precise rhythm section. Formed in 2011, the quintet has built a repertoire that includes La Mort dans la pinède, Le Malinche, Boeing and Fou à lier — songs that reveal their taste for storytelling and contrasts. On stage, transitions settle in, atmospheres stretch, and the arrangements breathe, alternating between electric surges and more restrained passages. You can hear the guiding presence of Bashung, Barbara and Gainsbourg without the group losing its own distinct voice, shaped by dense songwriting and carefully crafted instrumentation. The set is conceived around dynamics, between urgency and nuance, where each track gains depth live.
