Les Fatals Picards

Les Fatals Picards return to the stage on April 9, 2027 at the Centre des Congrès de Haute-Saintonge in Jonzac. Fueled by an unabashed taste for absurd humor and a songwriting sharpened by satire, the band has championed since the early 2000s a brand of rock that blends catchy riffs, self-deprecation and a clear-eyed view of everyday life. Their thing: lyrics that sting just enough, choruses you sing along to without thinking, and a stage rapport that turns every concert into a shared appointment.

You can expect their classics, from "L’amour à la française" — launched at Eurovision — to songs drawn from Pamplemousse mécanique, Coming Out, Le sens de la gravité and Country Club. Between comic barbs and electric jolts, the set effortlessly moves from in‑your‑face rock to ballads that slip off course, with the contrarian twist that has followed them since their beginnings. No posing or long speeches—just a band that delivers, talks about what surrounds them and pulls the audience into their offbeat, finely honed universe.
