Yannick Noah

On May 28, 2026, at Le Radiant - Bellevue in Caluire-et-Cuire, Yannick Noah presents Un p’tit tour à deux. In duo with guitarist Nicolas Paillet, he offers an acoustic take on his repertoire, refocused on the essentials: voice, guitar and lyrics. Far from large stages and heavy arrangements, he revisits his songs in a stripped-down form that highlights the melody and the natural groove of his music.

Between songs, Yannick Noah takes the time to share memories that have marked his journey—encounters, moments on the road and studio sessions. This sense of closeness is part of the concept: a simple, direct exchange where the songs flow unfiltered, ranging from reggae to pop and ballads that have defined his albums. The duo plays with nuance, phrasing and the dynamics of a guitar in service of the melodies.

A performance conceived as a human-scale interlude, sustained by the performer’s generosity and his musical rapport with Nicolas Paillet. An opportunity to hear his well-known songs in a new light and to be carried away by the relaxed energy of an intimate set.
