Le Printemps de Bourges

  « Le Printemps de Bourges must become for anyone interested in Chanson (songs) a place for creation, expression and confrontation ». Late 1976 Daniel Colling started a new concept with this sentence: a Chanson festival in the heart of a middle-size city and happening during Easter holidays. This sentence is still meaningful for the 37th edition of Le Printemps de Bourges Crédit Mutuel. You just have to change the too restrictive word Chanson for today-music or popular music and the spirit and organization of the first Printemps de Bourges the way its creator and associates see it would almost be the same. Ever since Daniel Colling said this sentence more than 5000 artists and bands performed in Bourges over 37 editions - 4 decades of popular music history: Léo Ferré and Franz Ferdinand, Franck Zappa and Juliette Gréco, U2 and Cesaria Evora, Placebo and Patti Smith, Serge Gainsbourg and Les Rita Mitsouko...
