Charles Doré

Brought to public attention by Star Academy, Charles Doré has carved out a career in which fragility feeds his songwriting and resilience serves as a guiding thread. From "Je pars mais je reste" to "Si demain tout s’arrête," his songs explore doubt, separation and renewed impulses, delivered with a deep, composed voice that goes straight to the point. Originally from Brittany, he moves forward without artifice, between spare ballads, understated pop and a stage presence attentive to the meaning of the words. You’ll hear chanson and folk influences, melodies that leave room for silence and choruses that settle in effortlessly. On April 1, 2026 at the Transbordeur in Villeurbanne, he will present his standout songs and new pieces in a format designed for the venue, up close to the audience. Without excess—just well-held songs, an interpretation that favors nuance and restrained energy—for a simple, precise moment that reflects his writing.
