Thomas Fersen

On July 10, 2026, at La Scala Provence in Avignon, Thomas Fersen takes the stage to unfold his narrative songs, populated by characters both tender and offbeat. A singer-songwriter since the early 1990s, who emerged with "Le bal des oiseaux" and was recognized at the Victoires de la Musique, he cultivates a storytelling art that flirts with fable, with precise phrasing and a supple musicality that leave ample room for the words.

With his velvety timbre and finely wrought lyrics, Fersen conjures miniature worlds where gentle irony and melancholy answer one another. One encounters tales of false heroes, talkative beasts and battered loves, written like little three-minute plays. Throughout the concert he draws from his album repertoire, from his beginnings to his more recent songs, composing a clear and playful set, free of unnecessary effects, anchored in a calm presence and attention to detail. An occasion to listen closely to a body of writing that loves language and the stage.
