Artistic momentum, recent songs, and the heart of a setlist

We welcome Jean-Baptiste Guegan at a moment of ongoing artistic momentum. Since his breakthrough, he has continued to forge his own path with studio work and touring, crafting an identity that respects an immense heritage while asserting a personal voice. In concert, that dual energy becomes tangible. Audiences have followed him through original titles and recent songs such as Puisque c'est écrit, Retourner là-bas, Square de la Trinité, and Merci, which showcase his affinity for storytelling melodies, guitar-driven arrangements, and lyrics that balance tenderness with resilience. On stage at Halle Tony Garnier, these pieces find new life: tempos expand, choruses bloom, and subtle accents from the rhythm section and backing vocalists illuminate the writing in a way only a live room can achieve. The setlist promises a journey that intertwines his own repertoire with the spirit that first inspired him, carried by a voice renowned for its depth and grain. Our role is to frame that journey with precision—calibrated sound design, immersive video, and lighting sequences that shift from amber warmth to stadium-scale brightness—so that every transition lands and every refrain feels earned.

From our vantage point backstage and in the control rooms, the construction of Johnny, le show d'une vie – Tournée is both meticulous and generous. The band arrives with arrangements tailored for the architecture of Halle Tony Garnier: guitars sculpted to fill the hall without masking the vocal line, drums tuned to resonate rather than overwhelm, and keyboards adding color for the ballads. The artist’s rapport with the audience is integral to the experience, and our floor plan allows that connection to ripple across the entire arena, from the pit to the upper tiers. Expect moments of quiet intensity where the room narrows to a single spotlight and voice, and surges of communal energy where thousands of hands rise as one. Our teams—ushers, technicians, and hospitality—work in concert to smooth every detail, from entry flow to final encore. This is a show that thrives on scale and sincerity, and our venue is ready: a stage large enough for narrative staging and intimate enough, thanks to careful placement of screens and sound arrays, to bring every expression to the last rows. In Lyon, at Halle Tony Garnier, we are honored to set the scene for a night that unites memory, presence, and the enduring thrill of live music.
