Vendredi Sur Mer Releases ‘Malabar Princess’ Album

Vendredi sur Mer released her album Malabar Princess. Vendredi sur Mer will be supporting on stage during her international tour starting in May 2025 – you can find more information below.
Last week, she shared the track “Arrêter le temps” featuring the pianist/composer Sofiane Pamart, bringing a touch of emotion, making this piano-voice duet a breath of fresh air on the album. Blending touching lyrics and a melancholic instrumental in perfect harmony, the track feels like an open letter, destined to resonate deeply with every listener.
The title track “Malabar Princess” sounds like a nostalgic ode to her native Switzerland and the Swiss Alps in particular.
Malabar Princess marks a return to the softness and nostalgia of her early work, following a more combative phase. Born from a writing residency in Montréal, the album reflects her return to the mountains and a search for self. Sam Tiba and new collaborators Adrien Gallo and Owlle helped guide this evolution toward more organic, intimate sounds. Malabar Princess is a sincere, poetic album where the artist fully reveals herself, blending desire and truth.
“Malabar Princess” follows “Hard” (feat. Hanni El Khatib) and “Tout résonne,” which are included in the upcoming album! Vendredi sur Mer will be supporting on stage during her international tour starting in May 2025 – you can find more information below.
With her third album, Malabar Princess, she returns to her roots and draws inspiration from the landscapes of her childhood in the Swiss mountains. After starting her artistic journey in photography, Charline Mignot (her real name) transitioned to music, creating Vendredi sur Mer, a persona that led to her debut album Premiers émois (2019) and the darker Métamorphose (2022).
Vendredi sur Mer announced her 2025 European tour dates in mid-December. A second leg for the European tour was added in Utrecht, Oslo, Copenhagen and Stockholm.

Malcolm Todd Announces 2026 North American Tour
Following the release of his new album Do That Again, out now via Columbia Records, Malcolm Todd announces his 2026 North American tour. The tour promoted by Live Nation, kicks off September 2nd in Irving, TX, and will bring Malcolm’s high-energy live show to his biggest venues to date across North America, including New York’s Radio City Music Hall, Los Angeles’ Greek Theatre, The Anthem in Washington, DC, The Salt Shed in Chicago, MGM Music Hall at Fenway in Boston, and more.
Do That Again is taking over streaming platforms, with all 13 tracks from the album hitting the U.S. Spotify Chart this week while the project rises to #5 on the Apple Music Top 200 Albums Chart alongside catalog standouts “Earrings” “Sweet Boy”, and “Roommates.” Malcolm now has 16 songs charting in the U.S., marking one of the biggest streaming moments of his career.
The album is also earning early critical praise, including a four-star review from Rolling Stone. Malcolm made his debut on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on the eve of the album’s arrival, performing “I Saw Your Face” live for the first time alongside his RIAA Platinum-certified single “Earrings.”
Across Do That Again, Malcolm steps into the promise of a fully formed pop star, threading classic pop songwriting through a modern R&B lens with humor, instinct, and meticulous detail holding it all together. Written in the blur after a breakthrough year on the road, the album captures Malcolm in motion: newly untethered, creatively locked in, and suddenly aware that the private moments he writes through are now being sung back by thousands of people.
That connection has already translated into real live demand. Three years ago, Malcolm had never played a show. Last year, he moved 100,000 tickets across three continents in a single touring cycle. Last week, he joined Don Toliver on stage at Madison Square Garden after his RIAA Platinum-certified “Chest Pain (I Love)” took on a second life through Don Toliver’s hit song “E85.”
TICKETS: Tickets will be available starting with an artist presale (details below) on Tuesday, June 9 at 10 am local time. Additional presales will run throughout the week ahead of the general onsale beginning on Thursday, June 11 at 10am local time at MalcolmTodd/Tour.
PRESALE: To participate in the Malcolm Todd artist presale on Tuesday, June 9 at 10 am local time you must sign up via seated HERE.
VIP: The tour will also offer a variety of different VIP packages and experiences for fans to take their concert experience to the next level.
