D?portivo had left us without warning, one evening in March 2015, after 10 years of touring, 4 albums and one last sold out concert at La Maroquinerie, intense, messy and joyful at the same time. It was Friday the 13th and despite the festive spirit, we felt something was up when we heard Jérôme Coudanne waving to the crowd: “The next song is the last… And it really is the last… It was really incredible ( …)!”
We are in 2022 and therefore the fans have not forgotten anything, neither the music, nor the mood of D?portivo, nor the incredible interaction between them and the band. Everyone is delighted to find this messy party where the wind of collective madness and the breath of freedom mix. The concerts this autumn will undoubtedly take us back in time, but D?portivo has always been and always will be a band of the present, here and now, and with the release of the new single, we even see an open door to the future. D?portivo is back, let’s face it!

The glittering gaze and the mischievous gaze: the trio Cancre naturally displays the impertinence of the bad students whose signature it bears. An obvious choice of name, because it is with the nonchalant charm of someone who decides to step outside the lines that Florian Pardigon and the two brothers, Robin and Mathias Millasseau, have embarked on this adventure.
Characteristic of Cancre, it comes to tease conventions and takes new paths. The trio works on period texts in an atypical rock register. The songs written by the group and its contemporaries are themselves incorporated into this modern musical adaptation of Molière’s language, where the subtlety of French is scratched by the rough rhythms, hoarse timbre and rough riffs of rock sounds.
Off the beaten track, Cancre paid off its bet. He has been able to explore new ways of combining rock and French song, in an elegant and original result.
