“Since their meeting in 2007 with Le Tigre des Platanes, Mathieu Sourisseau and Etenesh Wassié have nurtured a great artistic bond. Their singing tour draws its source from the traditional Ethiopian repertoire, revisited by melodies and playing styles that blur the lines. Etenesh's voice, wild and secret, carries us away. Mathieu's bass playing, crossed by Mingus, Tom Waits, Sonic Youth, the banks of the Niger River, carries us away. A poignant journey where emotion pierces.
"On the edge of the feverish bass, the tightrope-walking voice of this Ethiopian diva sways, wanders, soars, strikes and bewitches us. The enchantment is wild, almost poisonous. This raspy majesty, where the joy of the deep song of Ethiopia is never far from suffering, carries us away to an elsewhere that captivates forever."”
