Marking eighteen years of his youth music project, French singer-songwriter Aldebert is launching a triple release spanning a children’s book soundtrack, a comic strip series, and a major arena tour.
Celebrating nearly two decades of his career, Aldebert is releasing a best-of album accompanied by a 28-date Zenith tour and a Paris Accor Arena show on Feb. 20, 2026.
The artist is expanding his creative output into traditional comic books with the launch of the first volume of “Super Mamie” alongside illustrator Liroy.
A new collaboration with author Oriane Lallemand brings his musical style to the 32nd installment of the popular youth literature series “Le loup”.
The upcoming best-of album, titled Jamais adulte ! 18 ans d’Enfantillages, réunit des chansons issues des différents Enfantillages. The tracklist features an opening new song titled “Jamais adulte,” which finally includes singer Renaud after an initial invitation in 2008.
“Renaud, c’est le premier que j’ai sollicité sur Enfantillages 1, en 2008, et il m’avait dit oui,” Aldebert told Corse Matin regarding the collaboration.
The multi-format rollout follows the metal-themed project Enfantillages 666, which allowed the performer to revisit his teenage musical influences with various French and international artists.
“J’avais une petite appréhension avant le projet. Enfantillages 666. C’est un pari risqué,” Aldebert told Corse Matin, describing the stylistic departure.
Alongside the musical retrospective, the artist collaborated with author Oriane Lallemand and illustrator Éléonore Thuillier to score the newest volume of the youth literature series featuring “Le loup,” where the character discovers music. The project features guest vocalists including Oldelaf, Zaz, and Michael Gregorio.
Fulfilling a childhood ambition, the musician is also entering the traditional comic strip format with the release of the first volume of Super Mamie, titled Vers la famille et au-delà, created alongside Liroy.
“On a tous en nous un enfant avec lequel on est plus ou moins connecté, qui nous aide dans notre vie d’adulte et qu’il ne faut pas oublier,” Aldebert told Corse Matin.
