About this event
Napsis moves between song, jazz and experimental music, with an ambitious orchestral approach. An immersive and daring project, designed as much for the stage as for listening. Napsis is a project launched in 2016 centred around Maxime Van Eerdewegh (composition, keyboards) and the distinctive voice of Lou Wéry. At the crossroads of song, jazz and alternative music, the group weaves a poetic and immersive world, navigating between French and English. Influenced by artists such as Björk, Radiohead and Hiatus Kaiyote, Napsis likes to blur the lines : a gentle melody can suddenly shift into a darker, more psychedelic exploration of sound. With the ‘Is There More' project, the band is broadening its horizons by incorporating an orchestral dimension, collaborating with arranger Pierre-Antoine Savoyat for a 13-piece ensemble. This evolution culminated in the recording of an EP in 2023, affirming a rich, bold and boundless identity. Napsis offers a unique brand of alternative pop, blending acoustic orchestration with electronic textures. An immersive, powerful and unpredictable live experience.
