Scène Loto-Québec de l'Esplanade - Montréal Gratuit
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

 « Les émotions musicales sont nombreuses, sous la forme de surprenantes vocalises, de soli de basse époustouflants, et d’envolées psychédéliques du plus bel effet » (La Nouvelle République, 2021). Ex-membre de Zap Mama, groupe phare de la scène féminine africaine il y a quelques années, Manou Gallo est une musicienne accomplie, cassant les codes et jouant de la basse comme on joue d’un instrument de percussion. Celle qu’on surnomme la Reine de l’Afro-groove déblaye en toute liberté les frontières entre les genres, amalgamant rythmes traditionnels, Rock, Jazz, Blues, Afrobeat et Funk. « Tout est possible, il n’y a pas de limite » dit-elle, saluant musicalement au passage ceux qui lui ont montré le chemin comme Manu Dibango et Fela Kuti.

“The musical sensations are many, with amazing vocals, breathtaking bass solos, and a psychedelic whirlwind of sounds to great effect” (La Nouvelle République, 2021). Former member of Zap Mama, one of the most iconic all-female groups of the African music scene, Manou Gallo is an accomplished musician, breaking with conventions by playing bass like you would a percussion instrument. Dubbed the Queen of Afro-groove, she pushes past the boundaries between musical genres, interweaving traditional rhythms with Afrobeat, rock, jazz, blues and funk. “Everything is possible,” she said. with a nod to the late great musicians who had shown her the way, notably the late Manu Dibango and Fela Kuti.
