Under Arrrest Tribute Gainsbourg

The artist will confide about his return to the stage: "Before the first show, my pulse beat at the speed of a Harley Davidson. I wondered how the little guys in the room would receive me. I jumped on stage and I took up the most beautiful thing I had written in my life. Words and music. Without fuss. I was sublimated by my American musicians. I told them: "Don't count the bars, we're going to ride on emotion." "

It is this emotion that the group UNDER ARREST proposes to rediscover for the time of an evening, by taking up the songs of the most impertinent of French geniuses, arranged in a "New York funk" style, like in 1985. Our repertoire is largely made up of the set list of the legendary concerts at the Casino de Paris, embellished with unreleased songs never played live by Gainsbourg.

UNDER ARREST is made up of experienced musicians from the Côte d'Azur, all passionate about Gainsbourg: we are interested in the artist and his musical and poetic work, not in his escapades, and we make it a point of honour to faithfully interpret the repertoire of the great Serge Gainsbourg.
