Napoleon Dynamite is the new Parisian festival that positions itself as a true laboratory for the musical currents shaping the future. Born from a collaboration between the organizations SUPER!, Petit Bain, and Playground Love, the festival turns Petit Bain and La Dame de Canton, two emblematic vessels on the Seine, into a free space where experimentation and creative energy meet along the water.
For the opening on May 12, Petit Bain will host an eclectic program ranging from the raw pop of A.GRIS to the intricate sonic textures of Jennifer Walton. The audience will also get to experience the explosive energy of the Manchester duo Silverwingkiller and the Liverpool-inspired sounds of Girl Group.
The following day, May 13, the celebration continues between the two boats. Petit Bain will present art-pop by 1000 Rabbits, the microtonal pop of Maddie Ashman, and the urban narratives of MustBeJohn. At the same time, La Dame de Canton will invite listeners into the electronic explorations of Crossed Feelings, the vintage influences of WorldPeaceDMT, and The Femcels, the British duo that recently caught the attention of critics during their MOFO Saint-Ouen appearance for its bold, daring compositions.
Napoléon Dynamite, on May 12 and 13, at Petit Bain and La Dame de Canton. The full programming and ticketing are available by clicking here.
