Les Croquants

Les Croquants, a duo made up of Danito and M. Kif (Daniel Torrico and Franck Marty), will take over Le Ferrailleur in Nantes on May 14, 2026. Rooted in the culture of the Southwest, they perform warm popular songs where humour mingles with commitment. Their lyrics speak of freedom, solidarity, rural life and human stories, carried by a sound that blends folk, musette, rock and Occitan influences.

On stage, the group cultivates intimacy. Sing-along choruses, direct exchanges with the audience, a collective energy that flows from song to song: their concert is experienced as a special moment, somewhere between a simple celebration and words that resonate. Since the 1990s, Les Croquants have honed a repertoire that alternates everyday chronicles and unifying songs, without affectation or gimmicks, with clear songwriting and earthy grooves. At Le Ferrailleur, you’ll find this way of knocking down the barrier, singing together and letting the music carry both the band and the audience.
