Join the Atlanta Francophonie Festival for a musical evening with Canadian singer Yao and his musicians!
With his deep baritone voice, Yao charms us into us in his warm poetic world by his bold creativity. His musical style crosses over Slam and Soul, emphasized by Groovy, Funk and Pop sounds. True to his rich, visual and rhythmic writing with a unique vulnerability, Yao offers sophisticated lyrics in a personal show, somewhere in between the powerful performance of French rapper Oxmo Puccino and the intimate lyricism of Leonard Cohen. After several tours overseas (France, Belgium, Madagascar, Algeria, Tunisia and Morocco…) Yao is eager to meet a new audience in Atlanta!
Singer: Yaovi Hoyi
Musicians : Marianne Dumas, Simon Poirier-Lachance, Peterson Altimo, Nathan DaSilva
