Last night, French singer-songwriter Eddy de Pretto charmed Montreal with his Crash Coeur tour! Just like his last visit two years ago, the show was part of Les Francos 2024! From the first opening notes of Love and Tendresse, Eddy noted the warm welcome from the audience, saying Montreal’s crowd always knows how to treat him well!
Alternating between slower songs in the darkness accompanied by a piano, to more upbeat tracks with a bright screen as backdrop, the Parisian artist serenaded the crowd with his deep cuts and hard-hitting lyrics. Eddy wasn’t able to bring the full setup from his Crash Coeur European tour, but he promised to come back to play that full production in the next year!
The show reached a high point with Kid, his beautiful anthemic ballad against toxic masculinity, sang by his fans at the top of their lungs. All in all, the evening was simply lovely, with Eddy de Pretto putting on a fantastic performance, at times upbeat and energetic, at times emotional and contemplative.
