A great bill of the some of the freshest and funkiest music from the other side of the Channel. This will be the first UK gig for Faudel, a stadium filling star in France. He has one of the most beautiful voices to come out of the vibrant Algerian rai tradition, his style an incredible homage to the great masters of this roots rebel music. He began performing at the age of 12, singing his favourite songs by Khaled and Cheb Mami – and within three years he was opening for Khaled himself! His new CD Samra (Mercury) is modern fusion rai, where Faudel is not afraid to mix flamenco, ragga, rap and R&B. Faudel sings his heart out with lyrics that express the hopes and frustrations of a whole generation of young French born Algerians. With hard hitting lyrics and inspirational music, it’s no wonder that that he been crowned “le petit prince du rai”.
