With the release of her first two albums, 2019's Premiers émois and 2022's Metámorphose, rising Swiss singer/songwriter and photographer and Vendredi Sur Mer creative mastermind Charline Mignot quickly established a cinematic sound that features elements of synth pop, French chanson and 80s pop with retro-styled beats paired with her ethereal yet sultry delivery. Thematically her work frequently touches upon romance, sensuality and introspection. Balancing nostalgia with a modern sensibility, the Swiss artist has won over fans globally through the release of songs like "Écoute Chérie," "La femme à peau bleue" and "Les filles désirs." Adding to a rapidly growing profile, she often accompanies her music with mesmerizing visuals. Mignot's third Vendredi Sur Mer album, Malabar Princess was released earlier this year to critical acclaim. The album, which features "Arrêter le temps," feat. Sofiane Pamart; album title track "Malabar Princess;" "Hard," feat. Hanni El Khatib and "Tout rèsonne" can trace its origins to a writing residency in Montréal and marks a return to the softness and nostalgia of her earlier work. Thematically, the album is nostalgic return to the mountain landscapes of her youth -- and a deeper search for self. Sam Tiba and new collaborators Adrien Gallo and Owlle helped to guide and inform the material's more organic, intimate sound. The end result is an achingly sincere effort that sees the rising Swiss artist revealing herself fully to the world. Mignot will be embarking on an 11-date North American tour this upcoming March. The tour includes a March 6, 2026 stop at Elsewhere. You can check out all of her tour dates for the rest of the 2025 and early 2026 below. But in the meantime, y'all, the rising Swiss artist shares her latest single, the standalone track "Si t'étais là." Anchored around shimmering, atmospheric synths, propulsive four-on-the-floor, a supple bass line and subtle bursts of twangy guitar, the cinematic and hook-driven production is simultaneously nostalgic yet contemporary, while being a dreamy bed for Mignot's breathy, mesmerizing cooing.

Vendredi sur Mer gives us a sweet wave of French Indie Electropop at the storied Roxy venue in West Hollywood, California.
