White glasses and long bleached hair, here comes Michel Polnareff again: the artist with multiple hits announced Monday his return, at the age of 80, with a new song, a future album and a next tour.
“Event: + My behind tour + throughout France in 2025 and the Accor Arena on June 14, and new unreleased album on 02/28/25”, is it written on the Instagram account of the interpreter of “On ira all in paradise.”
The Franco-American artist, a fan of playful puns, chose this title as a nod to his famous poster for the concert at the Olympia in 1972 where he showed his buttocks. Buzz, scandal and even trial: the troublemaker of French variety will be sentenced to a heavy fine for indecent assault.
He has already announced the release of a new single entitled “Sexcetera”. It will be revealed exclusively in TF1's 1 p.m. news on Monday, the channel said.
This new song will then be available from 2 p.m.
His new opus will be released on February 28, seven years after “Enfin!”, the last original studio album, and three years after “Polnareff chante Polnareff”, composed of covers of his repertoire in piano-voice and certified gold disc with more than 80,000 copies sold.
On the tour side, Polnareff will begin with a date at the Apollo Theater in London at the beginning of April, a first for him, before continuing concerts in France, starting with the essential Printemps de Bourges festival.
“Michel Polnareff will open the 49th edition of the festival during an event concert which will mark his first visit to Bourges and the start of his “Derrière tour” in France,” wrote the organization of the event on Instagram.
In the musical landscape since 1966 with “La Poupée qui fait non”, Polnareff left his mark on French song with his style, his voice and his songs hummed by several generations: “Love me, please love me”, “L'Amour avec toi “, “Letter to France”, “Goodbye Marylou” and others.
