The Jam Jar, Bristol
Doors Open 7.30pm

An Indie-pop and afro-soul sounds enthusiast deeply rooted in the African continent, Blick Bassy is a force of nature, known across France for his vibrant live performances.

On his latest album Mádibá, which came out in Spring 2023, Blick Bassy has chosen to address the environment, particularly the burning issue of water. At the confluence of several living sources, navigating between Africa and the West, Blick Bassy’s music – for which he mainly uses Bassa, its mother tongue – is distinguished by its mix as much as by its density. Tending towards the essential, it reaches a high emotional level.

Entry requirements: no age restrictions (under 18s to be accompanied by an adult over 21yrs, 1:1 ratio)
