The Blaze Tickets

The Blaze: music and video spectacularly combined

With their debut releases, The Blaze swept up a host of music video awards and achieved instant fame in the halls of music and cinematography. The French duo has whipped up a veritable storm with their deep link between music and film, which express itself in tender, carefully observed videos and hypnotising house-influenced pop. Watch this mesmerising act with tickets for The Blaze, which are now available to buy or sell on StubHub.

Meet the French house duo that's setting the world afire

Often thought to be brothers, The Blaze are actually French cousins Jonathan and Guillaume Alric, who got together over a film school project - Jonathan, who was studying in Brussels, asked for his cousin's help in creating a soundtrack for a video he was creating. While both men had grown up listening to classical music, Guillaume had begun producing dub and reggae, and The Blaze's music is a dub-influenced blend of house and pop, featuring dreamy synth sounds and warm beats to underscore their mournful, distorted vocals. It's a unique sound and one that has found great resonance not only in the French house scene (which is characterised by artists like Daft Punk, Superfunk and Polo & Pan) but far further afield. In 2018 The Blaze played live sets at festivals including Coachella, Lovebox and Primavera Sound, and has toured numerous venues in the USA and Europe. Whether they're on a giant festival stage or playing at an iconic club, tickets to The Blaze will guarantee you an audio-visual experience unlike anything you've encountered before.

Witness the stunning art of The Blaze in concert

You'd be hard-pressed to find a comparable artist to The Blaze, and that's because of the unique link that the creative duo has established between music and video. Of course most songs are released with a video these days, but The Blaze videos stand out with their stunning cinematography, thoughtful story lines and developed characters - more short films than music videos, they can be an electrifying or even heartbreaking accompaniment to The Blaze's music. Their first two releases, 'Virile' and 'Territory', won numerous awards for the video's direction and production, and The Blaze gigs feature an incredible combination of sound and image that make their shows even more unforgettable. It's a somehow simple yet pioneering way of producing music - whether the sound or the image comes first, both are inextricably linked and, together, so much more than the sum of their parts.
