Festival du Voyageur, in partnership with Black and Proud, presents Cheikh Ibra Fam + Kelly Bado!
Cheikh Ibra Fam :
After more than half a decade with the legendary Orchestra Baobab, Cheikh Ibra Fam embarked on an international solo career in 2022, taking audiences around the world by storm with his Afropop blend of funk, Afro jazz, soul and Senegalese traditions. His songs invite crowds to dance while challenging universal systemic issues.
Kelly Bado :
Inspired by her African heritage, French chanson and American gospel, Kelly Bado has won several awards. Born in Côte d'Ivoire, Kelly's songwriting captures the beauty of the languages and rhythms she encountered on her journey from Abidjan to Winnipeg, promoting human connection and cultural diversity. Her talent has led her to share the stage alongside international artists such as Alessia Cara, Serena Ryder, Walk Off the Earth, and to open for five-time Grammy winner Angélique Kidjo. As well as winning the public vote, she was praised by Sir Paul McCartney for her moving performance of Let it be at La Voix Québec 6.
NB: The Voyageur pass and weekend passes are not eligible for CCFM shows.
