Festival international Nuits d’Afrique : Sahra Halgan à l’esplanade Tranquille

Wed 15 Jul 2026 • 07:00 pm Africa / Ethio Jazz / Garage Rock
Esplanade tranquille - Montréal Gratuit
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

Elle chante pour exister, pour résister. « Portée par l’énergie rock du trio lyonnais qui l’accompagne, Sahra Halgan n’a en effet qu’une seule ambition : placer son pays sur la carte du monde » (RFI, 2021). Son drapeau constamment à portée de main, cette figure emblématique du Somaliland, petit pays qui a proclamé son indépendance de la Somalie en 1991 mais qu’à peu près aucun État ne reconnaît, transforme chaque concert en prise de parole. Sa voix brute et brûlante ressuscite des mélodies millénaires qui percutent des riffs sans concession et des tambours hypnotiques, à la croisée entre éthio‑jazz, blues touareg et rock garage.

She sings to exist and to resist. “Powered by the rock vibe of the trio from Lyon accompanying her, Sahra Halgan has but one aim: to put her country on the world map,” (RFI, 2021). With her national flag always within reach, this emblematic artist from Somaliland—a small country that declared its independence from Somalia in 1991 but is recognized by virtually no other nation—transforms each concert into an opportunity to speak out. Her raw, fiery voice breathes new life into ancient melodies that intersect with hard-hitting riffs and hypnotic drums at the crossroads of Ethio-jazz, Tuareg blues, and garage rock.

CE SPECTACLE EST GRATUIT!
