At Rock en SeineOne day follows the other, but no two are the same. After an opening day marked by Lana Del Rey’s extravagant show, the second day was definitely rockier, with sets by The Last Dinner Party, Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes, The Hives, Gossip and Maneskin. Friday, August 23, 2024, The festival from the Paris region dared to take a new approach with soul, hip-hop and electro to excite the audience.

We start the day with the soulful music of the young British singer Olivia Deanaccompanied by her musicians (guitar, bass, drums, saxophone, trumpet, trombone and keyboard). The artist named Lauryn Hill, Amy Winehouse and The Supremes as her influences and was always in a good mood at the end. Cascade stage this Friday in front of a full audience. In fact, it was difficult to get close to the stage. AlthoughOlivia Dean has not yet released an LP, many in the audience already knew the lyrics of their songs by heart. This was the case with “ Ok, love you, bye “, “ What will I do on Sundays? ” And ” Messy “. In short, a masterful set to kick off the third day of Rock en Seine.

A different stage, a different atmosphere, with a concert by the British rapper Loyle Carner. ” Rap at Rock en Seine? “, some asked… Yes, but not just any rap. For Loyle Carner is a virtuoso of the genre, considered by many to be one of the leaders of a new generation to watch closely. This Friday, the hip-hop artist confirmed his incredible talent for swinging a lazy flow sublimated by a few jazzy tones. Starting from his personal history (racism, dyslexia, hyperactivity…), Loyle Carner and his musicians (guitar, bass and drums) enchanted us with their touching and deeply generous set.

We stay on the Big scene catch jungle ‘s summer set! Jungle is this British music project that was launched in 2013.

Back to Scene of the cascade for an excellent Soul wax Concert, our favorite of the third day! The Dewaele brothersalso known as the electronic duo 2manydjs, have been delighting us for almost 30 years. After releasing several acclaimed albums in the late 90s and early 2000s, the Belgian electronic rock band kept a low profile in the following years. But the band has not stopped performing. This summer Soul wax played a number of dates, including a stop in Rock en Seinemuch to our delight.
