Get ready to dance — Après Ski Bands is hitting the road for Fête de la Musique in Savoie & Haute Savoie!
Each year on 21st June, towns across France come alive with free live music, and 2025 is no exception. From lakeside vibes in Annecy to mountain views in Courchevel and après-ski hotspots in Les Gets and St Martin de Belleville, you’ll find some of our favourite artists bringing the party to the French Alps.
Whether you’re sipping rosé in the sun or heading out for an alpine evening of music, here’s where to find us…
Les Gets — Après Ski Bar – Haute Savoie
13h00–14h30: Bélier Bleu
Kick off the day with one of our most loved local artists. Bélier Bleu brings a unique mix of French pop, folk, and rock’n’roll with a looping pedal setup that transforms solo sets into something much bigger. His charismatic stage presence and bilingual repertoire are perfect for a lunchtime session in the heart of Les Gets.
16h00–17h30: Jack Kelly
Later in the afternoon, settle in for a beautifully delivered acoustic set by Jack Kelly. Trained as a classical guitarist and now known for his soulful vocals and feel-good sets, Jack is a master at reading the room — from upbeat singalongs to laid-back covers that’ll have you swaying into the evening.
St Martin de Belleville — Association Bellevilloise de Sports et de Loisirs – Savoie
Evening performance: Hot Piece of Brass
If you like your live music loud, brassy, and full of energy — don’t miss this one. Hot Piece of Brass is a powerhouse brass band known for funk, soul, and explosive party vibes. Perfect for lighting up the village square as the sun sets, they’ll be delivering a punchy performance as part of the community celebration in St Martin.
Annecy — Terre de Bellevard – Haute Savoie
19h00–20h00 and 20h30–21h30: Tobias De Kretser
Tobias is known for his smooth vocals, multi-instrumental talents, and vibrant stage presence. Performing two evening sets overlooking the lake, expect a mix of original songs and stylish covers spanning indie pop, alternative, and laid-back grooves. An ideal spot to relax into the summer solstice.
Courchevel 1550 — L’Ecrin Blanc – Savoie
18h00–20h00: Sian Hayley Smith
Elegant, soulful, and effortlessly cool, Sian Hayley Smith is the voice behind many of our most memorable 5-star events. Her blend of soul, and stripped-back acoustic sets makes her a favourite for luxury venues — and this Fête de la Musique, she’ll be serenading guests on the sunny terrace at L’Ecrin Blanc.
