Louis Tomlinson conquering France this summer: what to remember?

We’ll summarize it.

In case you’ve been living under a rock, Louis Tomlinson is well-known for being part of the band One Direction. However, in recent years, he has ventured out as a solo artist with some very interesting musical offerings. Starting with the album Walls, released in January 2020, which unfortunately didn’t receive the media coverage hoped for, partly due to the less-than-ideal Covid period. Nevertheless, it’s an album with some great tracks: Two of Us, Kill My Mind, We Made It. The album was still promoted on our soil with two Olympia shows in April 2022. However, no festival appearances were planned.

A few months later, in November 2022, a second album was released, Faith in the Future. It’s also a very good record, featuring tracks like Bigger Than Me, Out of My System, Silver Tongues. And things started to pick up, particularly in France. The show moved to the Accor Arena on October 14, 2023! A 1 hour 40 minute set that even included a cover of 505… by the Arctic Monkeys!

Shortly after, festivals began announcing their line-ups for the summer of 2024. And here comes the surprise! Two events decide to trust Tomlinson: Main Square and Cabaret Vert. Two true French institutions, which allowed him to showcase his music to a broader audience that wasn’t just there for him. A set of only 55 minutes, but enough to make an impression.

One of our writers attended the show at Cabaret Vert. Here are a few words from her report: « We have to admit that we didn’t know him very well… We were a bit skeptical about seeing an ex-member of One Direction… and yet, Louis Tomlinson turned out to be one of our great discoveries of the day. The artist created an absolutely amazing atmosphere and introduced us to his very rock repertoire with a pop touch that makes most of the songs incredibly addictive. In fact, he’s now among our liked tracks on Spotify… We definitely recommend checking out this artist who, like Harry Styles, has managed to break away from the image of a teen boy band singer. »

Unfortunately, our dear Louis’s tour is coming to an end. Let’s wish him a well-deserved rest after these busy months, hoping that he will offer us a third high-quality album. And who knows, maybe we’ll see him at our festivals again, in addition to his traditional Parisian appearances… In any case, he will be welcome!
