Grand Final Schedule

Pop.

“Will there ever be holidays again?” With those few words tossed to the sea, Cabale opened a new chapter in 2025.

After a debut EP praised for its writing and generational resonance, the four sun-starved boys adopt a more frontal tone. With humour as their last refuge, they watch the people around them. They grow up, grow old. Sometimes they leave. And you have to make do with what remains.

Between Paris and the Atlantic coast, the band crafts elegant pop blending Nino Ferrer, Balthazar and LCD Soundsystem, hoping to find, in some chance chord, a cure for that damn Breton drizzle.

English rock.

English-language rock band formed in Paris in 2025, Tatum brings together a singer/guitarist, a bassist, a drummer, a trumpeter/guitarist and a keyboardist. After cutting their teeth on projects spanning many styles, they came together around Tom’s songwriting.

A prolific year: their debut album Roses In The Bathroom is already out and has been played at Parisian venues including Supersonic (x4), Péniche Antipode and Le Klub. A remix album and an acoustic/live record (2026) are next, before a new EP recorded in autumn 2026.

Creole Punk.

Melody Walter is a burning need for creativity. Her music reflects her mixed heritage: a Guadeloupean mother and a Franco-German father. She grew up in a home where music was everywhere, shaped by many cultures.

A hybrid territory where rage meets poetry. Guadeloupean Kreyòl and French as her languages. Punk energy, massive bass and electronic experimentation. Her raw, incisive lyrics carry both intimate and collective demands — a call to politeness and to principles. A promise poised between tension and sensuality.

DJ set — Progressive / Early Trance.

Co-founder of the MINITEL media outlet, his influences come from labels such as Correspondant, Ombra, Ritmo Fatale, Bordello a Parigi, Hivern Discs and many others. A fan of hybrid sets, he loves to surprise and play Italo Disco gems, Indie Dance and Early Trance as well as New Wave and 80s/90s edits.

He has played at numerous Paris clubs (Batofar, Cabaret Sauvage, Trabendo, Badaboum…), across France and abroad — London, Prague, Budapest, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Ljubljana — and at festivals like Sonica (Italy), Ozora (Hungary), Arcadia and OPAL (France).

Soul / R&B.

Carel is a Franco-American pop artist of Senegalese-Cape Verdean origin. Her music sits at the crossroads of pop, neo-soul and contemporary R&B, drawing on sounds from her heritage and carried by strong emotional intensity and direct writing.

With New Girl, she lays the foundations of a project that is both intimate and assertive, exploring our relationship to emotions and identity. Her music is conceived as a space where chaos becomes material and emotions can exist unfiltered.
