Souad Massi - Sequana

Concerts-Souad Massi - Sequana
10th album of the Franco-Algerian singer, which redefines his universe in an unprecedented musical variety The Sequana album (released in October 2022) redefines the universe of Souad Massi by an unprecedented musical variety: the palette of sound colors of the singer, Author and composer of Algerian origin, Usually marked by folk and chaâbi, widens towards the Sahel, The Caribbean or Brazil, Going through Rock Trash. Surrounded by a new team, Souad Massi opens a new chapter to a career started in the 1990s, marked by a departure from Algeria for France and ten albums that nothing deny, Despite a revolution carried out today with a post-pandemic appetite.

With this tenth album, The Franco-Algerian singer goes in search of the sun of her childhood, "Light and sweetness", While tracking the cruelty that pushes the dictators to cut the poet's hands.

Born in 1972 in Bab-el-Oued, Souad Massi belongs to a large and rich family, that of folk, whose DNA is defined by the guitar, The concern for observation and intelligence that there is to transmute injuries into songs. Its new opus having been designed in a duel mode imposed by a pandemic dialectic, She sings there in Arabic and French, Slips into nostalgia tinged with Bossa Nova and takes hold of the poetry of the Arabic language to describe adolescent discomfort. In Sequana, Everything is metaphor and paradox, Everything is cocoon and chrysalide, Everything is drive and everything is link.


In partnership with the Institute of Arab and Mediterranean Cultures in Geneva which will be present in the concert (books and craft pieces).
