Hindi Zahra et Fatoumata Diawara - Banlieues Bleues
Hindi Zahra et Fatoumata Diawara; Olympic Café Tour; Banlieues Bleues Festival; Hindi Zahra, voice; Fatoumata Diawara, voice, guitar; Yacouba Kone, guitar, keyboards, Sekou Bah, bass; Zé Luis Nascimento, drums; This new production celebrates a friendship born ten years ago far from the limelight, when these two singers first shared the stage. That was in the early 2000's, before success came. At the time, Hindi Zahra and Fatoumata Diawara often appeared at the Olympic Café, a classic venue for new music, in the Paris district of 'La Goutte d'Or'. The two singers soon made a name for themselves, building bridges between cultures and making modern Africa shine in the world. Today, they revisit their early days, their friendship bringing together inventive folk music and soul.

Naissam Jalal - Banlieues Bleues
Naissam Jalal Live at Banlieues Bleues 2017; Naissam Jalal feat. Hamid Drake, Quest of invisible F. Naissam Jalal, compositions, flute, nay; Leonardo Montant, piano; Claude Tchamitchian, bass; Harmid Drake, battery, drums; The flautist continues her search for meaning with a dream quartet to approach the mystical and spiritual side of jazz. From her early days, Naissam Jalal has been oscillating between the West, symbolized by the traverso she studied at the Conservatory, and the East, represented by the ney, which she studied with great masters in Damascus and Cairo. In residence at the Dynamo, she sets a new objective: to integrate improvised modal jazz with non-western traditions, like the Arab dhikr, the Indian raga, and Gnawa trance. A specialist of the genre, drummer and percussionist Hamid Drake immediately recognized in her the ability he himself acquired alongside Don Cherry and Pharoah Sanders. He is now part of the adventure. Recorded on 2017, March 28th at the Dynamo of Banlieues Bleues, Pantin, as part of the 'Banlieues Bleues' Festival; TV Director, Gilles Le Mao (58 min)

He is back with a trio, his favourite format, including Senegalese bass player Alioune Wade and his brother on percussions. His remarkable style serves an open form of jazz, more mature and supremely inventive. World class.
