Influenced by Vianney, Julien Doré, Benjamin Biolay, Georges Brassens. Yanis Kaci writes songs that smell of sea salt and diesel. The son of a Marseille dockworker and a seamstress, he dropped out of university to tell the stories of his port-city neighborhood, Le Panier, on a guitar inherited from his Algerian grandfather. His music is about the things people mend—fishing nets, engines, and relationships—and what happens when they can’t. These are hushed, plainspoken confessions from a city at the edge of the sea.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
(Spoken)
Je suis le vieux rabot sur l'établi, rue Papety.
Vingt heures seize, la notif' a vibré dans le silence du pin.
Sa main me reprend, après six mois de poussière.
La paume a la même chaleur, la même odeur de résine amère.

[Chorus]
(Sung)
Je suis le dernier copeau de votre histoire
Le fil du bois qui se souvient de ses doigts
Un amour raboté jusqu'à la transparence
Le silence poli par une longue absence

[Verse 2]
(Spoken)
Je me souviens du frêne pour le lit du premier.
Elle avait dit : "fais-le solide, qu'il tienne une éternité".
J'ai mordu le bois, j'ai craché des rubans blonds sur le carrelage.
Maintenant, mes fers sont piqués de rouille. Signe de l'âge.

[Chorus]
(Sung)
Je suis le dernier copeau de votre histoire
Le fil du bois qui se souvient de ses doigts
Un amour raboté jusqu'à la transparence
Le silence poli par une longue absence

[Bridge]
(Sung)
On croit l'assemblage parfait, le tenon dans la mortaise.
Mais le bois travaille, le cœur se fend, sous le poids des marées.

[Outro]
(Spoken, fading out)
Sa main me repose. Froid contre le métal.
Le silence revient. Plus lourd, c'est tout.
