Catherine Ringer

On 28 February 2026 at La Maroquinerie (Paris), Catherine Ringer took the stage with Family Affair. Trained in theatre, dance and singing, she has shaped—from her days with the Rita Mitsouko to her solo albums—a playground where French chanson, rock and electronic touches mingle without boundaries. From her early sparks with Fred Chichin to tracks from Ring n’ Roll and Chroniques et fantaisies, she moves between taut guitars, synthetic keyboards and French refrains, with a taste for abrupt rhythmic shifts and strongly marked bass lines.

Live, her supple voice and the blend of languages give the songs forward momentum. This concert brought together Rita Mitsouko staples and more recent songs, rearranged with Family Affair in a compact format that favors punch and momentum. Between a dry groove, electro pulses and pop bursts, the setlist spans several periods of her repertoire, carried by a stage presence that goes straight to the point. An opportunity to hear precise songwriting and immediate melodies, in the intimacy of La Maroquinerie.
