Two equally impactful releases followed, establishing an authentic, powerful, and refined blues-rock sound driven by sharp guitars and finely crafted lyrics. That sums up the story of the most “southern” band to come from the North. Today, Christophe Marquilly makes a notable comeback in a trio format. After sharing the stage with renowned artists such as Thin Lizzy, Rose Tattoo, Molly Hatchet, and Johnny Hallyday, he returns to the very essence of his art: the raw pleasure of playing and sharing his iconic songs—such as Suzy and J’vais craquer—with a loyal audience. Joined by Fred Nicolle on bass and Fabrice Trovato on drums, the band relies on a solid and inspired rhythm section, true to the spirit of legendary power trios like ZZ Top and Rory Gallagher. A clear influence that has now become a genuine sonic signature. An undiminished live energy Building on a triumphant return—particularly at the Vouziers Festival in October 2024, and more recently at Le Plan in Ris-Orangis with Ganafoul in March 2026—STOCKS has hit the road again with a clear ambition: to set stages alight.The program delivers a burst of energy, featuring the band’s classics—Suzy, Cole Younger, La tête à l’envers, J’vais craquer, Où tu cours…—alongside new compositions that showcase an ever-vibrant creativity. Each concert is an immersive experience: over an hour of musical travel between Lille and Chicago, blending rock power with blues emotion.On stage, Christophe Marquilly impresses with his blues-infused guitar playing and a voice that remains as strong as ever. Between songs, his humor and self-deprecation create a genuine connection with the audience. Alongside him, the rhythm section drives an unstoppable groove, supported by a modern and efficient sound production. No unnecessary frills here—the music is at the heart of everything. A new landmark album After more than 20 years, STOCKS returns with a new album recorded at Totem Studios in Paris: a true tribute to French rock, both faithful to its roots and resolutely modern. Southern influences are ever-present, notably through a French adaptation of La Grange by ZZ Top, as well as a heartfelt homage to Tony Joe White. From deep blues (Je reviens vers toi) to bold experimentation (Rap’N’Roll) and socially engaged lyrics (Oligarque, Ne touche pas), the album reveals a mature, incisive, and uncompromising songwriting style. Nostalgia is never far away (C’était mieux avant, Au temps qui passe), carried by the clear-eyed perspective of an artist who has witnessed the world evolve.The album closes with Rain On Blood, an intense instrumental blending Spanish-tinged acoustic sounds with an electric onslaught. Authentic, powerful, and sincere, STOCKS proves that rock has lost none of its strength. The road opens once again before them… and you’d be wise not to miss it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bad Reputation","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":57140576125259,"sku":"R6728-4297","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/Stocks-FlashbackStation.jpg?v=1777301337"}],"url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/collections\/stocks.oembed","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
