With La Grande Salle, Nathan Zanagar offers a complete artistic statement. Across five meticulously crafted tracks (Occupe Toi, Aux Hommes, EDA, In My Head, and La Grande Salle), the young French artist showcases an astonishing range — both emotionally and sonically.
Zanagar is a songwriter, director, dancer, and storyteller. Every element of this release, from the music to the four self-directed videos, is filtered through his singular vision. Each track is a carefully drawn world, deeply personal yet resonant, where lyrics hit “like an arrow” and melodies shift from vulnerability to intensity.
Whether in French or English, Zanagar’s voice carries a rare honesty — expressive and unapologetic. He dares to explore intimacy, identity, friendship, and liberation without filter. EDA, in particular, touches a rarely explored emotional space, while Occupe Toi, co-created with artist Valentin Marso, reveals a poetic sharpness well beyond his years.
Already celebrated across stages from Paris to New York, Copenhagen, and the Philippines, Zanagar brings an unmistakable authenticity. Even offstage, he roots himself in action — planting trees when he’s not planting songs.
In La Grande Salle, Nathan Zanagar is asserting. A bold declaration.
