A solid friendship between Laury Thilleman and Garou
Interviewed by 7 Days TVLaury Thilleman – who sang during the show – confided to having had a lot of pleasure in finding Garou. “What are the weddings again? Wool… Well, it won’t go with the season, but that doesn’t matter! (Laughs) The days before the live, we take great pleasure in seeing each other again, catching up with each other, because he in Quebec and I in France, we don’t see each other much the rest of the year! Then, there is a real work phase, where we write, we rewrite, we make the show our own. There are little moments when Garou will say to me: “Hey, you wouldn’t want me to sit down at the piano, we’ll do something, we’ll sing…” We try to plan things without it becoming too prepared, to leave room for the spontaneity of live”, she confided.
On the audience side, as reported by our colleagues from Puremédiasthe Fête de la Musique brought together more than 1,752,000 viewers, or 12.5% of audience share.
