On May 20, Jutes stopped at the Trabendo in Paris as part of his first European tour. The venue was sold out and already packed even before the concert began, with the intimate atmosphere unique to the venue immediately creating a sense of being fully immersed in the live performance.

The first set, featuring Ally Nicholas, sets a fairly mellow alternative vibe, centered on melody and a rather subdued energy. The performance is polished and pleasant, but remains somewhat understated, lacking any truly memorable moments.

When Jutes takes the stage, the change is immediate. The concert opens with a very in-your-face energy, driven by a solid band and a clear determination to maintain constant tension. The songs flow one after another without any real breaks, in a continuous stream where energy remains the main driving force.
On stage, he commands the space, regularly interacts with the audience, and constantly seeks their reaction. This gives the performance a very direct, sometimes slightly showy quality, but one that’s consistent with the project’s overall aesthetic and the venue’s format. The Trabendo responds well, especially to the best-known songs, and the energy gradually builds throughout the set.
The quieter passages provide a few moments to catch one’s breath, without completely breaking the rhythm. Above all, they highlight a more melodic and vulnerable side of the project, which emerges in flashes amid an overall very energetic performance.
Overall, the concert remains fairly linear in its structure, with a steady build-up and few sharp breaks. The encore with Sleepyhead stands out slightly from the rest, providing a more subdued and unifying conclusion that leaves a slightly different impression from the set.
Ultimately, it’s a solid and effective concert, designed above all for live performance and immediate impact, which works very well in terms of energy but may seem somewhat monotonous over time if you aren’t already fully immersed in this very direct musical universe.
