Hang Massive - Tournée

Hang Massive at Transbordeur: an immersive handpan night in Lyon

From our vantage point at Transbordeur, we are thrilled to welcome Hang Massive for a performance devoted to pulse, resonance, and the enveloping glow of handpans. Our hall is designed to let subtle overtones breathe, and this show invites you to listen closely as metallic harmonics bloom into rich, layered textures. Expect a contemplative atmosphere that steadily builds into stirring, rhythmic passages, with lighting cues and immersive projections that accentuate the group’s evolving sound world. The connection between artist and audience is central to evenings like this; the duo’s relaxed stage presence, well-honed pacing, and sensitivity to room dynamics allow the music to unfold like a shared meditation. In Lyon, we look forward to hosting a community that knows how to savor quiet detail and celebrate uplift in equal measure, gathering around instruments whose voices feel both intimate and panoramic in our space.

The artist’s current momentum and what awaits on stage

Hang Massive’s artistic momentum remains strong, and our team has shaped this date at Transbordeur to showcase how their craft has expanded. Blending handpans with subtle electronics, live looping, and delicate percussive accents, they balance the serenity that first drew listeners to their music with grooves that carry the room. In recent months, the duo’s concerts have emphasized contrast: solo passages that spotlight the grain of metal and touch, followed by full-bodied polyrhythms and interlocking motifs that rise on waves of reverb. Their audience continues to grow worldwide through recordings and films that highlight the tactile beauty of the instruments, and on stage those pieces find renewed life in extended arrangements and spontaneous interplay. You can anticipate a setlist that weaves signature compositions with fresh material refined on the road, illuminated by visual design that alternates between nature-inspired imagery and abstract forms. The result is a journey that feels grounded and expansive, inviting listeners to move, breathe, and attend to the small shimmers that make this music so transportive.

For this date at Transbordeur, we are tailoring our production to honor both the quietest detail and the most radiant crescendo. Our audio team will work with carefully placed microphones and a transparent PA mix to render the delicate attack of each note and the long, singing sustain that follows. Lighting will favor warmth and depth, keeping focus on the performers while sculpting the room with color and shadow, and our stage layout will prioritize clear sightlines so the flow of hands across steel is visible from throughout the venue. Whether you prefer to be close to the action or to take in the full panorama, the hall’s contours offer multiple vantage points for deep listening. We also plan space for merchandise, where fans can connect with the duo’s latest releases and materials around their instruments, and we encourage arrivals with a calm mindset to fully absorb the arc of the performance. Transbordeur is easily reached by public transport and bike, and our teams will be on hand throughout the evening to ensure comfort, clarity, and a focused atmosphere—an ideal frame for a night where resonance becomes a shared experience.
