How a French Resort Inspired V.Of to Create an Unexpected Pop Tribute, “La Grande Motte”

For nearly ten years, V.Of has been living, breathing, and promoting La Grande Motte, not as a musician, but as a passionate resident who genuinely loves where he lives. His community guide “La Grande Motte et ses Bons Plans” pulls in 17 million interactions yearly from people across six continents, proving he already knows how to bring folks together around this special French seaside spot. Now he’s taking that same community-building energy and putting it to music, though he’ll be the first to tell you he’s neither a trained singer nor a professional musician.

“Love letters don’t always need paper. Sometimes they just need a chorus.”

“La Grande Motte” is a genuine tribute from someone who actually calls this place home. V.Of captures what makes La Grande Motte special without getting lost in technical descriptions of its famous architecture or rattling off visitor statistics (though those 2 million annual tourists and 70% green space coverage speak for themselves). The timing couldn’t be better. Just months after The New York Times gave La Grande Motte some serious international love in their September 2024 feature, here comes a homegrown anthem that gives newcomers and longtime fans alike something to rally around.

V.Of simply wanted to share why he loves where he lives through this infectious pop anthem. “La Grande Motte” works as both a celebration for those already in the know and a welcoming handshake for curious newcomers. Stream “La Grande Motte” and see if this French coastal gem captures your imagination too.
