JOZEF VAN WISSEM
Jozef Van Wissem is an avant-garde composer and lutenist who plays his unique all-black baroque lute all over the world. The titles and nature of his works often have a mystical Christian appeal and the music he creates is simply timeless.
In 2013, he won the Cannes Soundtrack Award at the Cannes Film Festival for the soundtrack of the film "Only Lovers Left Alive" by Jim Jarmusch. In December 2017, he was invited by the Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg to interpret the madrigal represented in Caravaggio's painting "The Lute Player" (1596).
This self-taught author, former bar owner in Groningen, is a Renaissance talent in the cruelty of the 21st century. He changed his lifestyle for the more intense one of an artist. Having studied the lute in New York, he later became an influential songwriter, known for his solo and film works, and critically acclaimed for his work “La Liberation du Lute”.
His very unique musical universe is easily verified by his collaborations: Zola Jesus, Tilda Swinton, Jarboe (Swans) as well as alongside his longtime partner, and also friend, director Jim Jarmusch. The timeless value of his work can just as much play on introspection, reminding us of ourselves as acting on our deepest fears.
Jozef Van Wissem's new album, “Behold! I Make All Things New” was released on March 18, 2022.
FRANCK SPICCIANI
Franck Spicciani is the singer of the Marseille coldwave band Miss Parker, which was on the bill during our first edition in 2019. The trio delivered that evening at the bar Le Ravelin a performance all in control and in depth while the melodies tense were supported by an almost sepulchral voice.
The next year, the world would stop turning. And everyone then found themselves confined. And artists have continued to express themselves through our screens to help us hold on. It was then that some of us discovered F. Spicciani's piano covers offering a jumble of intimate re-readings by Bowie, Interpol, Editors, Joy Division, Nick Cave, Noir Désir or even FGTH, Sting, Sabbath, Motorhead, Boniver or Chelsea Wolfe to name but a few. Direct Crush for his surprising interpretations of sensitivity in the privacy of his apartment. Here, the rocker gives way to the crooner, between emotion and darkness, the hymns move into prayers, and the idea of offering this extraordinary repertoire germinated to turn into a very first solo concert.
