Ehtiopian crunch music – Lyon, France / Addis Abeba, Ethiopia

[FR] uKanDanZ… un style unique, une rencontre singulière entre un quartet électrique français et Asnake Guebreyes, charismatique chanteur de la scène d’Addis Abeba. Leur musique s’inspire de chansons traditionnelles et populaires éthiopiennes animée par une énergie très rock. Sans concession. Guitare, saxophone, basse, batterie et voix forment un ensemble ravageur empruntant des chemins qui ébouriffent nos repères.

[EN] uKanDanZ… a unique style, an unusual meeting between an electric quartet and Asnake Guebreyes,charismatic lead singer originates from the vibrant music scene in Addis Abeba.

Their music is inspired by traditional and popular Ethiopian songs. uKanDanZ has a real crunch energy. Between rock, jazz, noise…

With impertinence, they rock it wildly. Without compromise. Guitar, saxophone, bass, drums and vocals shuffle our bearings. What a pleasure! The stage presence of uKanDanZ swings alternately between energy and emotion… then the public, transcended, dances and shivers.

Recorded, mixed, mastered by Christophe Chavanon between february and july 2015.
