Bertrand Belin

On 13 January 2027 at the Théâtre Mac-Nab in Vierzon, Bertrand Belin presents Watt, a new chapter in his career as a singer‑songwriter in which the verb takes center stage. With a deep voice, precise diction and clean writing, he sets the words in motion between rock gestures and folk breaths, with a restrained elegance that lets the language lead the dance. On stage, the guitars trace clear lines, the rhythm moves forward without heavy emphasis, the electronics remain sparing — everything converges on the text and its imagery.

Watt is at once what comes out of the speakers, a nod to an English timbre, an echo of Beckett’s figures and a reminiscence of childhood. All these threads convey the spirit of the concert: a gentle tension between sounds, silences and meaning, narrative fragments that coalesce, refrains that settle in effortlessly. Belin blends recent pieces with carefully chosen songs, favors nuance over spectacle, and traces a line where song brushes against electricity, fiction and the inner landscape, with his characteristic way of letting the music breathe around the words.
