Vendredi sur Mer has largely contributed to shaping a new francophone pop, recognizable by the alchemy between his soft voice and his catchy melodies. With melancholy and sincerity, she evokes her desires as well as her flaws, and never ceases to surprise us by leading us into a singular universe for each of her projects.
His first album Premiers émois (2019) captured the innocence of adolescence through a sung-spoken style that became his signature. With Métamorphose (2022), she explored more raw sounds, inspired in particular by techno.

As an opening act, discover Waterlily, a young artist and songwriter who sings songs in French with pop/folk sounds. When she sings, Waterlily projects her refuge, it is there that she writes about others, the world, love and its colors. Her intimate and sensitive universe borrows from Pomme and Emilie Simon as well as from Boris Vian and Michel Gondry. If the belly knots, if the flowers burn or the inner octopus moves, Waterlily will write it in her songs like a diary.
