The tour follows the release of Petit Biscuit’s acclaimed debut album Presence released in 2017 which garnered widespread recognition including nabbing a Triple j feature album and a nomination for Best New Album at France’s Victoires de la Musique, the country’s highest musical honour. Featuring single’s Problems, Sunset Lover, Waterfall and Wake Up that have collectively racked up hundreds of millions of streams on Spotify, the album is Petit Biscuit’s complete creative vision and includes contributions from Bipolar Sunshine, Cautious Clay, Panama and Lido.
Petit Biscuit recently released the video for album standout Wake Up, directed by DAD®, it finds the young producer living carefree days in the US shot through the lens of a super 8 camera. This week saw the release of a special behind the scenes feature capturing the LA based production of the video.

Classically trained from a young age, Petit Biscuit—a.k.a. Mehdi Benjelloun—plays piano, guitar, cello and more, and began experimenting with electronics to form his signature sound at the young age of 11. Presence is heavily informed by his schooling, combining acoustic elements with innovative electronic production and his trademark vocal manipulations.
