Alain Bashung | By Fabrice Delpech

Tribute to Alain Bashung

By Fabrice Delpech – Live Tribute in Quartet or Quintet Formation

Alain Bashung, a legendary figure of French music, left an indelible mark on generations with his unique universe — blending rock, poetry, and sonic experimentation. From Gaby oh Gaby to Vertige de l’amour, La nuit je mens, Madame rêve, and Osez Joséphine, his songs have become timeless classics, still resonating deeply with music lovers of all ages.

This tribute is more than just a concert — it is a heartfelt journey into Bashung’s world, brought to life by the voice and sensibility of Fabrice Delpech. A multi-instrumentalist (guitarist, pianist, and singer), Delpech captures the essence of Bashung with depth, nuance, and emotional precision.

Over the course of two hours, audiences are invited to rediscover the artist’s greatest hits, as well as more intimate and lesser-known tracks. Performed with respect and modern flair, each piece is reinterpreted with care by a group of passionate musicians, arranged in a quartet or quintet depending on the venue and desired atmosphere — offering a warm, powerful, and authentic sound.

Every note, every lyric pays tribute to Bashung’s artistic brilliance: his enigmatic writing, his raw and fragile voice, his ever-evolving arrangements — sometimes minimalist, sometimes bold, but always deeply sincere.

This show is an invitation to (re)discover the work of a true icon of French music, in an atmosphere both intimate and electric. A timeless experience, somewhere between dream and vertigo.
