Eliasse

Don’t say Comorian blues or Indian Ocean rock anymore: Eliasse is ZANGOMA! This musical concept created by Baco, a famous Comorian musician, comes to name the meeting of Western music and Comorian and Indo-Oceanic music.
His rock zangoma, Eliasse creates it by mixing rock, blues, folk with the typical rhythms of his archipelago and more widely of Africa. From twarab to mgodro, from maloya to afrobeat, zangoma rock reveals its plural face. Its base is the drum (ngoma) and the percussive rock of Eliasse claims this common and hybrid banner!
With his third album, eponymously titled Zangoma, scheduled for the end of 2023 (Soulbeats Music), Eliasse and his power trio promise once again to deliver groove: powerful drums by Fred Girard, roaring guitar by Eliasse, swaying bass by Jérémy Ortal and a thousand nuances of voice…
In short: the Indian Ocean dances the ROCK ZANGOMA!
