About this concert
De son vrai nom Nassim Dendane, guitariste, chanteur, auteur-compositeur, Dendana se fait découvrir sur les ondes des radios algériennes à travers son style distinctif de musique arabo-andalouse mêlée à la chanson française. En 2010, il quitte son pays pour poursuivre sa carrière en France. Il y compose et produit 3 albums. Tant sur ses albums qu’en live il partage et côtoie Ben l’Oncle Soul, Gnawa Diffusion, Charlotte Savary (Wax Tailor), Kassav’, Cheikh Sidi Bemol, L’ONB...
Il compose de subtils mélanges, dosant à merveille la chanson, la folk, le reggae et le gnawa. Sa personnalité solaire, sa présence scénique chaleureuse et son ouverture captent le public, ses performances live transportent et frôlent la transe. Du nord au sud, Dendana modernise la tradition.
