Bertrand Lucien Bruno Cantat (French pronunciation: [bɛʁtʁɑ̃ lysjɛ̃ bʁyno kɑ̃ta], Occitan: [kanˈtat]; born 5 March 1964) is a French singer, and songwriter. Known for being the former frontman of the rock band Noir Désir, in 2003, he was proven guilty and convicted of the manslaughter ("murder with indirect intent" – dolus eventualis) of French actress Marie Trintignant, which occurred in a hotel room in Vilnius. To some controversy, Cantat returned to Noir Désir after his release from prison in 2007, playing with the group until it disbanded in 2010. He subsequently formed a musical duo with Pascal Humbert, calling themselves Détroit. Read more on Wikipedia
