Pat Kalla+Super Mojo

Pat Kalla and Super Mojo – An EXPLOSIVE live show at The Eco Park Porthtowan!

ABOUT THE ARTISTS…

We welcome PAT KALLA and his band back to the Eco Park after his sensational 2019 show headlining Tropical Pressure Festival. Pat Kalla is a musician, singer and storyteller and a soul man! Born in Lyon, France with a Cameroonian father a musician and political activist and a French mother, he explores the soul, the slam and the funk and the art of telling stories, life being a great one.

Hi albums Jongler, a tribute to the African culture in honour of a father with Sawa origins, the tribe from the people of Makossa, Hymne a la vie and Belle Terre take in the style of High life, Makossa, Angolian music, afrobeat, Caribbean funk and Afro disco and turn it into something tropical and totally original… It’s irresistible dance music of the highest order!

Backed by the Super Mojo Band with a deep groove and positive energy this show will be explosive!

SUPER MOJO are the best musical relaxant, should the words cease to be heard, they arrive showing us their organic instrumentation, vintage keyboards and Afro-Cuban pianos. Super Mojo’s work perfectly underlines these superb stories.

Highlife, Rumba, Biguine, Funk and Afrobeat are well known musical ingredients. On this record they are dosed in almost secret proportions, add to the pot some more essences coming from the Island of Reunion, The West Indies and mainland Africa. Harmonies from the duo Bonbon Vodou, feature on “Aimer”, the Creole sunshine of Olivia Victorin (Dowdelin) on “Rêve Danser”, and a melancholic moment from the Franco-Congolese Rebecca M’Boungou (Kolinga) on “Rivière”. All these artists knew exactly how to touch the heart and sensitivity of Pat, talking about love while embarking on a dreamlike journey, evoking the spirits of their ancestors.

Directed by Guts, ‘Belle Terre’, this 3rd album by Pat Kalla and his Super Mojo, may cause some psychedelic disturbances in the most receptive subjects. If so, the full potential has been unleashed. Expect the most unexpected.
