Jean-Jacques Goldman is still as discreet but a little less secret. The dashing septuagenarian, still as sporty and sharp, has accepted in recent months to pose with fans for selfies, in Brittany, in Lille, to recently sign a tribune on artificial intelligence … But to see him in the studio, it’s been a long time … This is what his old accomplice Jacques Veneruso, renowned author and composer, revealed Thursday, March 20 on his Facebook account.
He posted three smiling photos with his friends Jean-Jacques and Robert Goldman crossed by chance in a famous studio in the west of Paris, where they each worked. With this legend: “reunion of friendship with two of the most important people for me, who gave me the opportunity to realize myself in my passion at a time when I had everything to prove … Robert, and of course Jean-Jacques Goldman. »»
But what did the Devil do this trio at the high-end studio, in Boulogne-Billancourt? This Hauts-de-Seine recording studio is well known to the Enfoirés troop and therefore the Goldman brothers. According to our information, Jean-Jacques and his youngest Robert, songwriter and manager, rented him to supervise the recording of a song written by Jean-Jacques Goldman for the Blueberry of France, a national centenary work which comes to the aid of the wounded soldiers, the pupils of the nation and the victims of war and terrorism.
Eloïz and Yvard will sing this new title, whose rights will be donated to the Bleuet de France
This unprecedented song will be unveiled during the solidarity concert “Les Sentinels d’un Soir” which will be held on April 10 in the Salle Pleyel and for the second consecutive year, with David Hallyday and Anggun in headliners. It is not Jean-Jacques Goldman who will sing it but two artists, Eloïz and Yvard, who are linked by their professional career at the Bleuet de France.
Eloïse Lapaille, 26, is a former gendarme who returned to his first musical loves during the Pandemic of Covid-19 and has since put in parentheses. Semi-finalist of “France has an incredible talent” in 2020, she chained with a little folk pop tube, “Hey Bro”, then released her first album and launched her first tour in 2024.
David Thurisaz, aka Yvard, in his forties, is an ex-mobile gendarme specializing in anti-terrorism which has resumed a career as singer and rock guitarist after being seriously injured. He told us his story last year before the first “evening sentries”. He is preparing his first album.
Together, they will perform this song for the first time in public on April 10 on the stage of Pleyel accompanied by one of the armies orchestras. All the rights of this composition, whose title would not yet be decided, will be donated to the Blueberry of France.
Still according to our information, it could appear on a future album bringing together titles of artists participating in the “Sentinels of an evening”.
