Madou

Madou is a Belgian singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist known for his poetic French-language indie pop with a nostalgic, slightly melancholic edge. Emerging in the early 2000s, he crafts intimate, story-driven songs that blend acoustic warmth with subtle electronic textures, often drawing comparisons to artists like Benjamin Biolay or Dominique A. His recent work—including introspective tracks like "Mooie Dag" and the haunting "Nachthuis"—continues his signature mix of wistful lyricism and minimalist arrangements, while collaborative projects like *Madou/Madouce* showcase his playful experimentation. Though he maintains a cult following in Belgium and Francophone Europe, Madou’s music feels like a well-kept secret: unassuming, deeply personal, and perfect for rainy-day listening.
