Laurent Voulzy en Concert - Tournée

Laurent Voulzy makes a stop at the Grand Rex in Paris on January 29, 2027 for a concert that spans his various periods. A guitarist, singer-songwriter and vocalist steeped as much in Anglo-American pop as in French chanson, he has built a repertoire of clear melodies, immediate choruses and carefully worked harmonies. On stage, he unwinds this thread by blending the sweetness of the guitars, enveloping backing vocals and precise arrangements.

From his rock beginnings in the 1960s to his long partnership with Alain Souchon, his career became widely known with ‘‘Rockollection’’ in 1977, before being refined on ‘‘Le Cœur grenadine,’’ ‘‘Bopper en larmes’’ and ‘‘Caché derrière.’’ The 2000s saw his return with ‘‘Avril,’’ followed by a revisiting of his sixties influences on ‘‘La Septième Vague’’ and ‘‘Recollection.’’ With ‘‘Lys & Love’’ he injected medieval hues and a more spiritual dimension, extended by the supple textures of ‘‘Belem.’’

At the Grand Rex, this blend of lucid pop, interwoven backing vocals and soft rhythms finds an ideal setting to place his songs front and center, between memories and fresh perspectives, without forced nostalgia. An evening to hear a singular voice link his eras, simply.
