Nuits D'Afrique day four
Due to the forecast of a lot of rain on the subsequent day, I decided to give a try to attending five shows on this day by adding the 22h show. I had a nap earlier in the day to help allow me to stay up later. Well, I suppose if I had done my research, I'd have picked a different night to stay late as I wasn't impressed with the 22h15 performer.
To begin, Bastin band from Algeria and Quebec was okay, I didn't end up staying for the whole show.
Next was Richy Vay from Haiti and Quebec; he did a combination of singing and rapping, he had a good band around him but his singing wasn't my cup of tea.
Then it was Taafé Fanga from West Africa and Quebec, it was very percussion heavy so I didn't stick this one out.
Lorraine Klaasen was the next show; and somehow I had heard of this name before. She is based in Ontario and from South Africa. I ended up recording a second video as that song in the second video had a really cool bass line and I liked it enough. I stayed for this whole show as the next show, 70 minutes later, was at this same stage.
Not wanting to deal with rain and potential thunderstorms I have decided to not go today and tomorrow is the last day; the weather looks good so I will go on that last day.
