NEW SINGLE in May - NEW ALBUM in the fall - NEW SHOW in December – the year 2018 marks the return of GRANDGEORGE on the radio and on stage !
When GRANDGEORGE’s music adventure first started with the release by [PIAS] of his debut EP in 2015, no one expected the success it would soon encounter. Every one sang along with « So Fine »! His fans discovered an astonishing young lad, keen on sharing his optimistic energy as well as his doubts through fetching melodies and lyrics. He quickly became a key player in the Belgian music world reaching momentum in 2016 with a D6Bels Music Award granted by the audience of the Belgian public TV channel (RTBF) just after the release of his debut album “So Logical”.
After a one-year break in 2017, GRANDGEORGE releases the new single Sunny Anyway early May 2018, together with its B-side Men Should Never Fall in Love. Pop melodies and arrangements for a perfect summary of GRANDGEORGE’s way of life : creativity and optimism as only option to tackle the world’s worrisome course.
GRANDGEORGE’s second album is expected in Automn 2018. After working with Mark Plati (David Bowie,… ) on his first album, GRANDGEORGE selected Ash Howes (Ellie Goulding, Texas, …) to work on the afro-pop-electro sounds of his new tracks.
The concert in La Madeleine will be the opportunity for GRANDGEORGE to present his brand new show following the release of his new album.
La Madeleine
14 Rue Duquesnoy 1000
The facade of La Madeleine is the only surviving part of the large covered market built in 1847 on the plans of the architect J-P Cluysenaar and inaugurated in 1848. It was the first covered market in Brussels, with the exception of the small flower market designed a short time previously by the same architect in the Galeries Saint-Hubert. It was also one of Brussels’ first large metal constructions. The Madeleine market was destroyed in 1957 and gave way to the festival hall of the City of Brussels. The cut stone façade, whose elevation is inspired by the Loggia dei Lanzi in the Piazza della Signoria in Florence, was kept as the front of a new building. For fifty years, the hall welcomed a host of festive and cultural events of all kinds. The venue is also known to the public for its receptions. It is notably where, for a long time, the city’s officials would gather for their annual dance, the Bal des Fonctionnaires. After being operated for several years by the Casino of Brussels, the City of Brussels has officially entrusted the management of the Salle de la Madeleine to Brussels Expo.
