Blick Bassy at the Ministère

In support of his critically acclaimed album Madiba (May ’23), Blick Bassy returns this April/May to North America for an extensive spring tour of the United States and Canada. In his own words, Blick says: “I love playing in the US and Canada, countries where artistic appreciation is deeply rooted. I enjoy strolling along the vast roads that connect cities and provide a unique opportunity to admire the magnificent landscape of this country.” The new performance artistically reinterprets the various tracks from Madiba, which saw Blick experiment with electronic production to support his iconic voice and composition style for the first time.

Musically, Madíbá takes Blick in a new direction, spurred by a love of James Blake and Bon Iver to relocate his voice in electronic textures with more spare instrumentation. The album (recorded between Paris, Biarritz, and Quimper and produced/composed with Romain Jovion), lets Bassy’s voice dominate, carried by delicate guitar, synthesizer, bassoon, and brass. The cuts are diaphanous and nevertheless modernist and testify to a contemporary and poetic Africanity at the crossroads of soul, folk, and electro. The album released in May 2023 has been supported by a wide list of media including Louder Than War, Bandcamp, Les Inrocks, Le Monde, Mojo, Afropop Worldwide, and aired on BBC6, KCRW, KEXP, Radio Eins, and FIP.

En soutien à son album Madiba (mai 23), acclamé par la critique, Blick Bassy revient en Amérique du Nord en avril/mai pour une longue tournée de printemps aux États-Unis et au Canada. Blick déclare : “J’adore jouer aux États-Unis et au Canada, des pays où l’appréciation artistique est profondément enracinée. J’aime me promener le long des vastes routes qui relient les villes et offrent une occasion unique d’admirer les magnifiques paysages de ce pays.” La nouvelle performance réinterprète artistiquement les différents morceaux de Madiba, qui a vu Blick expérimenter la production électronique pour soutenir sa voix emblématique et son style de composition pour la première fois.

Musicalement, Madíbá emmène Blick dans une nouvelle direction, poussé par son amour de James Blake et de Bon Iver à relocaliser sa voix dans des textures électroniques avec une instrumentation plus dépouillée. L’album (enregistré entre Paris, Biarritz et Quimper et produit/composé avec Romain Jovion), laisse la voix de Bassy dominer, portée par une guitare délicate, un synthétiseur, un basson et des cuivres. Les morceaux sont diaphanes et néanmoins modernistes et témoignent d’une africanité contemporaine et poétique à la croisée de la soul, du folk et de l’électro. L’album sorti en mai 2023 a été soutenu par une large liste de médias dont Louder Than War, Bandcamp, Les Inrocks, Le Monde, Mojo, Afropop Worldwide, et diffusé sur BBC6, KCRW, KEXP, Radio Eins, et FIP.
