Gauvain Sers

Gauvain Sers will settle in on January 22, 2027 at L’Abaca in Val-de-Cognac. A singer-songwriter who first came to prominence as the opening act for Renaud, he champions lyric-driven songs that draw on everyday life, balancing tenderness and melancholy with a clear eye for what shifts and what endures. From “Pourvu” to “Les oubliés” and “Ta place dans ce monde,” his songs tell of quiet lives, villages we pass through too quickly, schools that close, and also of loved ones, friendships and the doubts of a generation seeking balance.

On stage, Gauvain Sers moves forward without unnecessary effects, the guitar leading the way and words that paint images. His social chronicles meet more intimate confidences: portraits that ring true and choruses that linger. People come for the simplicity of the setup and stay for the precision of his writing and the way he places a story before every face. In Val-de-Cognac he will revisit the songs that have placed him among today’s noteworthy songwriting voices, and will likely open a few new pages as well, between shared memories and current events seen from the road. An intimate encounter with the songs, quite simply.
