Ben Mazué

Ben Mazué brings his words and melodies to the Théâtre Jean-Deschamps in Carcassonne on 13 July 2026, as part of the Festival de Carcassonne. A singer-songwriter who blends French chanson, pop and spoken phrasing, he cultivates the art of intimate storytelling and the details of everyday life. On stage, he alternates songs and asides, in a storytelling-style concert, allowing the stories that run through his albums to breathe.

With Famille, his fifth album released in early 2025, he explores what connects us: inheritances and the shadowy areas that shape our trajectories. These new tracks mingle with his already well-known repertoire, from "33 ans" to "La femme idéale" and "Paradis." The live show weaves a thread through these chapters, between confidences, subtle grooves and lyrics that look squarely at simple things.

In Carcassonne, one finds clear writing, spare arrangements and a stage presence that favors direct engagement. An evening for listening, sometimes recognizing oneself, and following a songwriter who continues his path without unnecessary effects, staying close to the words.
