Festival International Nuits d’Afrique : Sia Tolno

Sun 21 Jul 2024 • 08:30 pm Afrobeat / Soukouss
Club Balattou - Montréal 25$
· by Jacob Langlois-Pelletier

Révélation RFI en 2011, Sia Tolno est de celles qui sortent des sentiers battus, qui personnifient la force et la résilience des femmes africaines. Elle est de celles qui ouvrent des portes, déconstruisent les préjugés. Soutenue par Tony Allen, l’acolyte de Fela Kuti, cette survivante de la guerre en Sierra Léone, pays où elle a grandi, s’est taillé une place de choix dans le milieu très masculin de l’Afrobeat. Toujours à l’affût de nouveaux défis, en quête d’intensité et de nouveaux groove, cette voix puissante que l’on compare à Angélique Kidjo et Miriam Makeba, se démarque également par sa participation au collectif Afro Dead, qui réinvente à grand renfort d’Afrobeat, de Soukous et de Highlife les morceaux de l’éclectique Grateful Dead. Son dernier EP, Baya (2023) fait la part belle aux rythmes mandingues et Afro-blues.

RFI Revelation in 2011, Sia Tolno is one of those who think outside the box, who personify the strength and resilience of African women. She’s one of those who opens doors and deconstructs prejudice. Supported by Tony Allen, Fela Kuti’s acolyte, this survivor of the war in Sierra Leone, the country where she grew up, has carved out a place for herself in the male-dominated world of Afrobeat. Always on the lookout for new challenges, in search of intensity and new grooves, this powerful voice, which has been compared to Angélique Kidjo and Miriam Makeba, also stands out for its participation in the Afro Dead collective, which reinvents the tracks of the eclectic Grateful Dead with Afrobeat, Soukous and Highlife. His latest EP, Baya (2023), features Mandinka and Afro-blues rhythms.
