Additional Information
Originally from Rwanda, Umurutasaté was born in Ethiopia and lived in Libya before arriving in Quebec 28 years ago. It was after a trip to Brazil in 2005 that she realised music would be an integral part of her life, but it took almost 15 years to make that dream a reality. After a pandemic and a midlife crisis, she quit her 9-to-5 job to devote herself entirely to her three passions: music, journalism and teaching French. She spoke with Keithy Antoine for PAN M 360 about her music, a blend of East African and Latin American rhythms, a few days before her concert on 4 October at Studio TD.
