Boulevard des Airs, often abbreviated as BDA, is a French band renowned for their enticing blend of pop, rock, and reggae with a touch of electro and brass instruments, creating a distinctive sound that has captured a wide audience in Francophone countries and beyond. The group was formed in the early 2000s in Tarbes, France by a group of friends with a shared passion for music. Throughout their career, they have been celebrated for their poignant lyrics and engaging melodies, crafting songs that resonate with a sense of wanderlust and human connection.

The band initially gained widespread recognition with their album "Paris-Buenos Aires" in 2011 but solidified their place in the music scene with the hit single "Bruxelles" from their third studio album, which was released in 2015. This track, among others, showcased Boulevard des Airs' ability to meld soul-stirring lyrics with infectious rhythms. Over the years, they've continued to evolve their sound and collaborate with various artists, as seen in their acoustic and deluxe versions of albums, and tracks like "Dis-moi comment tu danses," "Mamie" featuring Gauvain Sers, and "Emmène-moi" featuring L.E.J. Notably, the group's commitment to authenticity and musical innovation has earned them not only a loyal fan base but also critical acclaim, including a Victoire de la Musique award for Song of the Year in 2019 for "Je me dis que toi aussi."
