Zucchero

Zucchero, a leading figure in Italian pop-rock shaped by blues and soul, has been making his mark for more than forty years. Backed by a gravelly voice and a precise melodic sensibility, he has penned songs that have travelled far beyond Italy: "Senza una donna," "Il volo," "Baila morena." His career is marked by collaborations with Bryan Adams, Johnny Hallyday, Tom Jones, Scorpions, Bono, Sting, Jeff Beck and Ray Charles. More than 60 million albums sold, long-running tours, and a repertoire that swings between ballads and electric grooves.

In 2026 he returns to the road in France. Join him on 25 May 2026 at the Zénith Nantes Métropole in Saint-Herblain for a date that will roll out his classics, his recent songs and a few detours back to his blues roots. From Italian to English, from the Hammond organ to guitars, Zucchero blends warm arrangements with live energy, supported by a seasoned band and brass that add breadth. It’s an opportunity to rediscover songwriting that is simple and direct, between melancholy, understated swing and choruses made for singing together.
