Michel Jonasz

Michel Jonasz, a singer-songwriter who brings chanson, jazz and soul into dialogue, will be on stage on 15 March 2026 at the Cité des congrès in Nantes. Audiences come for his precise songwriting, his piano-driven melodies and the sense of groove he has cultivated since the beginning of his career. His repertoire blends signature hits and more intimate pieces, ranging from urban vignettes to understated blues and memorable ballads. Think of “La Boîte de jazz,” “Joueurs de blues,” “Super Nana” or “Minuit sonne” — landmarks of a rich discography, revisited on stage with contemporary arrangements that let the lyrics breathe.

Surrounded by musicians equally at ease between swing and French pop, Jonasz creates a clear, warm atmosphere, propelled by the rhythm and momentum of his piano. The arrangements alternate tension and release to keep the voice at the center, without overloading. The concert unfolds a simple thread through his career, between shared memories and new sonic colors, in a format conceived for the hall. Meet in Nantes to rediscover precise writing, a flexible tempo and that direct way of telling stories through music.
