Festival des Saveurs | Aldo Guizmo Goes “Str8 Forward”

Interview by Sandra Gasana
Genres and styles : Dancehall / Reggae

Additional Information

This is how he decided to name his most recent Afro-dancehall album, released in 2024, which he continues to defend to this day. Originally from Guadeloupe, this is not Aldo Guizmo’s first appearance at the Festival des Saveurs interculturelles de Saint-Michel. He was there last year, but this year he will be accompanied by the group SolidGround, with whom he has collaborated on several occasions. This Afro-Caribbean-inspired artist is also a cultural organizer, computer engineer and radio host. A track from his recent opus “Touchy” was a big hit, and the opportunities for this vocalist continue to multiply. He’ll be performing on several stages this summer, so don’t miss the chance to see him this Sunday. Our journalist Sandra Gasana interviewed him a few days before his eagerly-awaited performance, as he was coming out from a rehearsal studio.
