COCO MBASSI PROJECT

An exceptional guest to celebrate music, presenting her new album Ewekedi, which translates as 'Creation' and 'The Nature of a Person'. This joyful, popular new project, at once simple and complex, is rich in polyrhythms and African melodies with classical, jazz and pop influences, and is a total exhilaration. Accompanied by her backing singers Ariane and Kevin, the incredible Thierry on piano, Patrick on guitar, Thierry on bass, Franck on drums and, as always, Coco's gentle, soothing voice provides the magical link between them all.
