A Message From Yann

"On my most recent tour I sailed from my home island of Ushant in Brittany to Ireland, the Faroe Islands, Fair Isle, Orkney, Shetland and north Wales. In these lands,

I found warmth in small venues, bars, community centers, churches, and village halls, where music and conversation blossomed into unforgettable nights.

Obviously I am not able to sail to central Europe! Yet, I yearn to carry this essence of connection and community across Europe. My travels will be solitary, with only my companion, Mün the dog, and my campervan. This journey strips away the conventional layers of touring – no crew, no elaborate riders, no hotels.

I envision these performances as intimate gatherings, where I'm not just a performer but a friend visiting your city. Hospitality, the kind you'd offer to a long-lost companion, is all I seek.

This tour is more than music; it's about sharing, connecting,and living in harmony with our surroundings and each other.”

Yann Tiersen, February 2024
