David Cairol and Taïro Unveil “Ticket pour Mars”, A Socially Conscious Reggae Single

Interview by Sandra Gasana
Genres and styles : Dub Reggae / Reggae

Additional Information

Originally, this track, written several years ago, was intended for David Cairol’s album, but following a phone call from Taïro, a new, more dub-influenced version emerged, adding a note of hope to the original. And this song is particularly timely given the current global context.

For his first two albums, David Cairol, a singer-songwriter from the Basque coast, was primarily a solo artist. But since then, he has been involved in numerous collaborations. His many trips to Jamaica have allowed him to forge strong connections over the years and to meet several big names in Jamaican reggae.

After the debut single “Building Bridges,” which spawned a series of EPs titled “Bridges,” the track “Ticket pour Mars” is featured in the “French Bridges” series. Our journalist Sandra Gasana spoke with the artist live from Biarritz to learn more about the song and his artistic journey.
