Yseult: MENTAL TOUR

On 22 January 2026, Yseult brings the Mental Tour to Théâtre Beanfield, 2490 Rue Notre-Dame Ouest, H3J 1N5 Montréal, Canada. The French artist, born in 1994 and raised in Paris with Cameroonian roots, writes in French and navigates between chanson, contemporary R&B and pop. Her deep tone and unhurried tempos frame lyrics about the body, love, vulnerability and self-affirmation. First noticed by a wider audience through Nouvelle Star in the mid-2010s, she moved from a major-label start to full independence, shaping a sound that shifts from piano-voice ballads to soul inflections, with trap touches and, at times, orchestral arrangements.

On stage, the Mental Tour extends this approach: intimate writing, a physical, grounded voice, and an interplay of silences, sparse pulses and layered harmonies. The set moves from hushed passages to denser textures, keeping the focus on the song and the text. Between minimalist moments and richer arrangements, Yseult draws a clear line through her repertoire, balancing confession, assertion and restraint.
