Kid Francescoli / French 79

KID FRANCESCOLI
After his first sold-out world tour (over 200 concerts in Europe, the USA and Asia) and the success of hits like Nopalitos, Blow Up and Moon (now certified diamond with over 150 million streams), producer, crooner and multi-instrumentalist Mathieu Hocine from Marseille has just released his most accomplished album to date. This collection of emotionally-charged songs is a tribute to his Mediterranean roots, and a showcase for his science of melody.

Building on his recent successes and the experience of producing his very first soundtrack for the film AZURO, Kid Francescoli is now one of the best French songwriters of his generation, easily identifiable by his unique signature sound.

FRENCH 79
In 2014, French 79 arrived on what they thought was a French scene. In just a few months it quickly became international. The single Between the Buttons, taken from his debut EP ANGEL, instantly placed him among the producers who matter. This successful first effort was added to the tracklist of the Olympic album, along with a second pop gem, Diamond Veins, a duet with American diva Sarah Rebecca. The album met with a huge international response, taking Simon Henner on the road to over 150 concerts around the world. He thus added to his track record as the godfather of Marseille's electronic music scene, which he had already invested with Husbands, Nasser and Kid Francescoli, with whom he will be sharing the bill for the Cannes concert.
