Grèn Sémé

(RE)

With roots in Reunion Island and ears turned to the world, Grèn Sémé returns to the stage with the new EPMaloya Gazé” na sua generosa bagagem. Este projeto franco-reunionense funde maloya tradicional — ritmo ancestral da Ilha da Reunião — com eletrónica, dub, rock and poetry sung in Creole, creating a deeply unique sound language. Born in Montpellier in 2006, the group was formed around the singer and percussionist Carlo De Sacco, bringing together Reunion students passionate about world music. Over the course of almost two decades, his artistic identity has evolved without ever losing its connection with his homeland. With an increasingly sophisticated sound, they explored the territories of French song, African pop pop and electronic music, always permeated by a strong poetic and political spirit.

Grèn Sémé has distinguished himself through his inventive approach to the music of the Creole diaspora, with albums such as'Grèn Sémé' (2013),'Hors Sol'(2016) ou'Zamroza'(2022) consolidating his cult reputation with diverse audiences. The latest batch of songs reaffirms the band's artistic and social commitment, speaking of a world in transformation, always with heartfelt words, pulsating rhythms and surprising arrangements. On stage, alongside Carlo De Sacco (vocals), are Mickaël Beaulieu (keyboards), Bruno Cadet (guitars), Germain Lebot (drums, percussion, charango, kamele n'goni, guitars) and Rémi Cazal (synthesizers, programming), crew members ready for a sensory journey through the soundscapes of the Indian Ocean, where song merges with dance, and rhythm with revolt.
