Celtic is also back, with the key, probably on the ground, to a year full of music, discoveries, and great evenings. It starts on Thursday with the unhanging of the works of Tarbes photographer Suzy Noguès followed by the concert of El Oelha, with hip-hop from Zoologik on Friday. And Saturday night, the solid rock of the Blackstones, whose drummer Nathan Hadjab answered our questions.
Blackstones
We met the Blackstones at the La Gespe springboard. What's your background since then?
We started playing together in middle school in 2012. We were all at Blanche Odin in Bagnères. We're now all students in Toulouse. We've evolved since then, technically first, by taking lessons, by listening to a lot of things too: rock, progressive, and even electro, by playing on lots of stages, like playing for the Décroche le Son springboard in Toulouse, with which we reached the finals. But we've kept our style and the Blackstones identity.
Has that changed the band's ambition?
At first, we played without thinking it would continue. And then the first concerts showed us that the audience liked our music. A pleasure that still lasts. It's now close to our hearts, and we don't want it to end.
Have you released an album?
Our first album came out just three weeks ago. It took us a year to make, but we're very happy with the result, having made this album ourselves, with only our own compositions.
What can we wish for Blackstones?
We want to be recognized, to become professional, but the most important thing is that the public continues to love our music. We make music for ourselves and for the people who listen to us; that remains our priority.
