Peter Doherty x Calvados : the unexpected feat !

Peter Doherty and his connection with Calvados

After a some­times tur­bu­lent jour­ney, Peter Doherty seems to have found peace in Normandy. Now living in Étretat, he has embraced the local cul­ture and developed a fas­cin­a­tion for Calvados pro­du­cers, draw­ing inspir­a­tion from their ances­tral craftsmanship.
In a 2022 inter­view with The Guard­i­an, he shared his appre­ci­ation for the Norman spirit : “He orders a black coffee and a glass of Calvados, which he drinks with pleasure.”

Calvados or the Art of Patience

The apples will grow
The bar­rels will roll
Soon to become liquid gold
The Calvados will flow

In his refrain, Peter Doherty clearly under­stands that cre­at­ing the famous Norman spirit requires time and a respect for the pro­duc­tion pro­cess.
Just like in music, patience and ded­ic­a­tion are key to cre­at­ing some­thing unique.

This track can be found on his upcom­ing solo album Felt Better Alive, set to be released in May 2025.
