PAN M 360 AT FIJM 2024 | NOÉ LIRA : A Latina Bombshell! 

The Mexican-Quebec singer and actress Noé Lira gave a free open-air concert, in somewhat rainy weather. But we didn’t feel the rain, because the singer-musician was radiating with her all-female group. Noé Lira is a beast of the stage, her energy is contagious.

Her proposal is certainly Latina, but it is a committed, intelligent music, far from the clichés of the genre. The actress has established herself in several Quebec television series, including The Emperor and La Candidate. In 2021, the musician and singer released Latiendo la Tierra. Three years and a pandemic later, we can feel that Noé Lira’s voice and musical posture have matured and progressed. Noé Lira addressed the audience in Quebec French, but chose to sing mainly in her father’s language. The result is very nice, no offense to certain Quebec nationalists, who could accuse her of weakening French in favor of another language. Noé Lira is also a committed, resolutely feminist artist, who affirmed last night that “the borders were artificial”. She plays the accordion, which she mixes with cello, keyboards and percussion. She is a perfect illustration of a mixed Quebec and proud of it. This plural artist never ceases to amaze us. This woman has fabulous potential. She will tour throughout Quebec this summer. Go listen to her!
