Jonas Attis au Festival Nuits d’Afrique

Fri 22 Jul 2022 • 06:00 pm Haitian Vodou / Rara
Scène TD-Radio-Canada - Montreal Gratuit
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

Les traditions musicales Rara et Vaudou n’ont pas de secret pour ce jeune auteur, compositeur et interprète né à Jérémie, principale ville du département de Grand Anse, en Haïti, reconnue comme « la cité des poètes » tant elle a mis au monde d’écrivains célèbres. Plusieurs aïeux de Jonas Attis étaient des musiciens, et particulièrement sa grand-mère adorée, décédée dans le naufrage du Neptune, auquel lui a survécu. Les épreuves qu’il a traversées ont façonné l’artiste qu’il est devenu : à la fois sensible, émouvant et avide de vivre ; à la fois ancré dans les traditions et tourné vers l’avenir. Ses agencements Roots convaincants, trempés dans le folklore haïtien, le Reggae, le Hip-hop et la Pop, sont excessivement émoustillants.

Vodou and rara musical traditions hold no secrets for this young singer-songwriter-composer born in Jérémie, the capital of Haiti’s Grand’Anse Department that has been nicknamed “The City of Poets” because it has been home to so many famous writers. There have been many musicians in Jonas Attis’s family, including his grandmother whom he adored and who lost her life the tragic capsizing a ferry called the Neptune, which he himself barely survived. Ordeals he has endured have shaped the artist he has become: sensitive and soulful with a zest for life, deeply rooted in tradition yet looking toward the future. His compelling arrangements create an extremely tantalizing roots-style music that is steeped in Haitian folklore, reggae, hip-hop and pop.
