About this concert
Songwriter algérien, DENDANA puise ses influences dans le blues, le rock
et le patrimoine saharien, à la croisée des musiques modernes et
traditionnelles. Il se fait découvrir sur les ondes des radios
algériennes avant de poursuivre sa carrière en France. 10 ans et 3
albums plus tard, DENDANA sort un nouvel opus dans lequel il retrace
son exil jalonné de rencontres décisives, et décrit le rêve d’une
algérie moderne en quête de libertés.

audience dream, sing and dance throughout the night, gaining his first international
exposure.
