Piche • BAM • Metz

Show & Culture

At 29 years old, Piche has established themself as one of the most unique figures on the French music scene. Behind this now-emblematic name, Mike — their given name — claims a hybrid identity that defies labels: "a singer who does drag, not a drag who sings." They compose music with their brother, together using their heritage and differences to create a sound that is both inclusive and sharp. Whether in drag or not, Piche plays with the codes of masculinity and femininity to highlight their absurdity, often with humor, always boldly. Rejecting any boundaries, Piche embodies a generation that claims inclusivity as its goal and self-expression as a political act.
