Djely Tapa

Fri 28 Feb 2020 • 08:00 pm Africa / Afro-Electro / Afropop / Malian Traditional
Cabaret Lion d’Or - Montréal 26,72 $
· by Alain Brunet

Hailing from the Malian griot caste, raised in the Kayes region in the western part of the country (near the Senegalese border), and a Montrealer by choice, the singer Sountougoumba Diarra firmly respects her African heritage while showing a strong desire to update it, and thus she becomes Djely Tapa. Caleb Rimtobaye (Afrotronix, H’Sao) helped her in this process, resulting in the beautiful album Barokan, released in January 2019. Here is Djely Tapa perfectly equipped to represent the immense culture of Africa 2.0. Malian and Sahelian traditions blend into the vast electronic universe, but it’s all still part of the West African movement. Within the Montreal musical community, she is THE African singer of the moment.
