Francis Cabrel is one of France’s most successful and best-loved artists of all time. A talented singer/songwriter of the folk/blues genre, 2008 saw the release of his brand new album, “Des roses et des orties” (Roses and nettles). His first studio album since “Les beaux dégâts” in 2004 and the eleventh of his 30-year career to date, “Des roses et des orties” is described as his hardest-hitting album to date. However, still unmistakeably Cabrel with his trademark mix of melody and poetry, the new album has been rapturously received by the public who are currently turning out in droves the length and breadth of France to see their idol perform. Perfectionist that he is, Cabrel has left nothing to chance. At the heart of his technical team are his long-standing FoH engineer, Ludovic Lanen on his beloved INNOVASON Sy48, with Sebastien Bramardi (who is also Cabrel’s recording engineer) piloting an INNOVASON Sy80 on monitors, both running on an Ethersound network.
