Mehdi and Noé Boon Seek Paris Studio Space on Instagram
Mehdi and Noé Boon, the eldest sons of Dany Boon, have turned to their social media followers to find a monthly rehearsal studio rental in Paris. The two brothers shared an Instagram post featuring themselves with their instruments on their backs, accompanied by a direct message stating their search for a studio for their music projects.
The younger generation of the Boon family has stepped into the music industry rather than pursuing commercial cinema. Mehdi Hamidou, the eldest son born from Dany Boon’s relationship with Sophie Hermelin, celebrated his 29th birthday on August 25. He performs under his real name as a bassist and guitarist, leaning into soul influences and collaborating with artists such as DJ Aspen on the webradio Rinse France and for an event New Balance x Views France.
Musical Backgrounds of the Boon Brothers

Noé participates in the musical duo Faux Amis, which composed soundtracks for Judith Godrèche’s television series Icon of French Cinema and her short film Moi Aussi.

Dany Boon has five children in total across his relationships. Alongside Mehdi and Noé, the actor is father to Eytan, Elia, and Sarah from his marriage to Yaël Harris. The family’s artistic pursuits remain divided between the elder Boon’s film career and his children’s ventures in music and cinema.
