OPENING ACT OF THE EVENING

ZEA & King Ayisoba

A dialogue between the inhabited voice of King and the intense one of Zea, singer of The Ex... A prelude with blues accents!

 

KING AYISOBA & BAND (GHANA)

Saturday, July 15th - 10 p.m

Hypnotic rhythms carry a rebel voice, cross the bush and flow into the urban jungle of Accra... Concreted with the ancestral beats of the kologo lute and the tradi-modern spirit of the hiplife, his afro-punk diatribes lead to trance!

 

THIRD PART OF THE EVENING

The Ex
Netherlands
Post-punk expérimental aux accents éthiopiens
