Caribbean / Gwo-ka / Punk Rock

The Bolokos – feat. Fanswa Ladrezeau – Kouté Pou Tann

by Stephan Boissonneault

The Guadeloupean punk band THE BOLOKOS returns with an innovative single mixing punk rock and traditional Gwo Ka (big drum) music. Here they are supported by a legendary figure in Guadeloupean music: FANSWA LADRÉZEA, leader of AKIYO, a strong cultural movement, and defender of Gwo Ka. The video clip was filmed during the carnival of Pointe-à-Pitre, is rich in powerful images, and shows a magnificent facet of Guadeloupean culture in all its complexity.
