Kid Francescoli

Kid Francescoli brings his sleek electro-pop to Electric Brixton in London on Wednesday 14 October 2026. The Marseille-based project of producer Mathieu Hocine has carved out a cinematic sound that blends retro synths, supple rhythms and airy, often female-led vocals. After early releases, the duo dynamic with singer Julia Minkin on With Julia and It’s Happening Again set the tone: intimate songwriting carried by warm pads, crisp drum programming and melodies that linger. Play Me Again pushed the project further into the spotlight, with the single Moon going viral and racking up tens of millions of streams. His tracks now travel widely, popping up in films, series and global campaigns, without losing their nighttime, romantic edge.

On stage, Kid Francescoli reshapes the studio textures into a more organic, tactile show. Sunset Blue broadened the palette and was followed by a tour spanning five continents; 2026 marks a return to the studio and, naturally, to live performance. Expect a set that connects the early dream-pop hues to the newer dancefloor curves, with those signature synth lines and vocal hooks front and center. Fans of L’Impératrice, Polo & Pan, Kazy Lambist, French 79, The Blaze, Rone, Thylacine, Isaac Delusion, Metronomy, M83, Parcels or Bon Entendeur will feel right at home.
