The cover of his album is reminiscent of another. In the photo of his new album “Il n’est jamais trop tard”, which comes out this Friday, Thomas Dutronc poses against the light of the setting sun. It is not far from that of “Si je m’en vais avant toi”, the legendary album of his mother Françoise Hardy who passed away on June 11.
The singer-musician has spoken little since his disappearance. He is starting to speak again these days to talk above all about this 5th album, more intimate than the others, where he plays with jazz and song. An exciting opus where he always knows how to be caustic and mischievous. He received us at his home for a long time, in the heart of Paris, to talk about his new songs but also about his mother who did not have time to listen to this record.
