Additional Information
After leaving Montreal for almost a decade, Mônica Freire decided to return to Quebec for personal reasons, but also because she had spent some of her best years there. She presents her latest album, Ilhada, which has already won an ADISQ award for Album of the Year, in the World Music category. She is preparing for a show at Théâtre Outremont, embodying her transcultural identity, as she reconnects with her Syrian and Lebanese origins in a trio format. A show that promises to be rich in diversity and sound. Michel Labrecque spoke to her for PAN M 360.
