Known as a singer-musician, author, and composer, Bertrand Belin pursues numerous diverse projects alongside his "official" career, combining literature and music with theater, dance, and cinema. His distinctive voice and phrasing, key markers of his French pop, are also evident in his writings. His latest book, "Vrac," published in 2020 by POL, mixes fragmentary prose and poems to explore memory and bring back the sediments of a childhood rooted in a popular and provincial France of the 1970s. Songs, anecdotes, statements, adages, definitions, thoughts—every language is good to express, serving as the marker of the invisible made visible, of the necessary turned into literature.
Bertrand Belin will share this voice imbued with freedom, the same that gave its name to his first album in 2005, of chaos transformed into textual material in his fourth book, "Vrac," and of his artistic grounding confirmed up to his seventh album, "Tambour Vision," released in 2022, another remedy for contemporary melancholy.
