Tété – Fauthentique (Album download)
Tété drops a brand new album of 15 hot tracks titled “Fauthentique“. With this seventh album, co-directed by Johan Dalgaard (Alain Chamfort, Camille. Tété has lost none of its status storyteller and unparalleled guitarist. He delicately explores the different facets of the likelihood that, more and more, steals the limelight from the “real” in our daily lives: the treatment of the news, the economy, politics …
“Fauthentique” is an epic of fake on a bed of organic programming. Certified pop collage. Falsely folk. Falsely naive. Fete was growing up to the sound of the Beatles and jazz singers. After a first musical shock with the arrival of hip hop in France at the dawn of the 90s, he tries the guitar at 16 and creates his first compositions. A few years later, he begins to perform in bars with the desire to make it his job “Happiness is at hand if you want to see it,” says Tété.
Passionate guitarist since adolescence, Tété released his first album, L’air de rien in 2001. A series of concerts will lead Tété around the world (Japan, Australia) and more than 500,000 albums sold. In 2016, Les chroniques de Pierrot Lunaire, a return to basics between blues and folk, where his limpid voice revives the simplicity and sonorous debut of the beginnings.
In this sense, Fauthentique is an optical illusion. A musical collage that wants to be a trompe l’oeil. The songs themselves are always certified. Can we say the same about our perception of things?
