Ben l'Oncle Soul

Ben l’Oncle Soul returns to the stage with a new chapter and a single that sets the tone. Don't wanna fall, driven by a soulful pulse and a jazzy hue, highlights a Questlove-inspired groove—soft drums, warm rounded bass and breathing keyboards. It bears his signature: a textured, grainy voice, catchy harmonies and precise arrangements, all in service of lyrics that speak of impetus, elitism and vulnerability. The track announces an upcoming album, more intimate in its writing but still rooted in a modernized R&B tradition, where restrained brass, understated backing vocals and tempo shifts raise the tension without overdoing it. On stage, Ben l’Oncle Soul likes to rework his songs, stretch the bridges and let the groove take over. Between new material and revisited classics, he emphasizes intimacy and the dynamics of live performance, with a band that allows room for nuance. Catch him live on April 3, 2026 at the Colisée in Lens.
