[PT] ‘Yo Debo’ representa o que existe de mais clássico nas composições musicais de Braima Galissá: simples e cativante, as pessoas apaixonam-se por ela em todos os lugares onde Braima a toca.
Com a produção a cargo de Jori Collignon, a faixa chega onde Braima queria: Ainda que bem ancorada na música e na tradição Griot do Kora, na sua essência, ‘Yo Debo’ é música feita para dançar, para unir as pessoas, música para fazer as pessoas sentirem-se bem.
‘Yo Debo’ é uma canção sobre ciclos. Conta uma história sobre como podemos inspirar os nossos filhos a serem as melhores versões de si próprios. A mudança real demora geralmente várias gerações e exige o conhecimento e o respeito pela tradição: apoiamo-nos nos ombros dos nossos antepassados.
Mira Kendô é um grupo que une gerações e culturas. O seu primeiro álbum é uma introdução calorosa à alegria e energia desta colaboração.

[ENG] The song is a true Braima Galissa classic: simple and catchy, people fall in love with the song everywhere Braima plays it.
With the production in the hands of Jori Collignon, the track lands where Braima wanted it to be: this might be a song in the tradition of griots and the kora, but in essence it is music to dance to.
‘Yo Debo’ is a song about cycles. It tells a story about how we can inspire our children to be the best versions of themselves. Real change often takes a generation. Real change often requires respect for tradition: we are standing on the shoulders of our ancestors.
Mira Kendô is a group that bridges generations and cultures. Their first album is a warm introduction to the joy and energy of this collaboration.

After a successful summer of performing over 35 festival shows, COLLIGNON continue their journey with the release of Bicicleta, a brand-new album (release date Februari 2025).

Bicicleta was written and recorded right in the midst of the band's summer tour. Gino, Yves and Jori seized the moment, the album captures exactly where they currently stand as a band: thriving on the energy of their live performances, with the desire to dive deeper into their music.

The result is Bicicleta—a diverse and authentic album that stays true to COLLIGNON’s distinctive blend of wildly grooving beats, psychedelic guitars, and sharp keyboard riffs. The music transports listeners across borders, from Cape Verde to India, all while maintaining that signature COLLIGNON sound.

This album was made with vinyl in mind, designed to be experienced as a complete journey. From the first Maloya rhythms of "Fonkér la Mér" (Kreol for From the Heart of the Sea) to the Brazilian groove and cosmic crescendo of "Vai Vai Vai (Into the Stars)", Bicicleta tells a story that flows from track to track.

To truly experience this album, nothing compares to holding the vinyl sleeve in your hands and spinning the record on your turntable.

Pre-ordering starts November 18th from Gris Gris Records’ Bandcamp page.

"Infinite Roots" is OUT NOW!
Link in linktree!

When Freddy walked into our lives, we were immediately struck by his loving character and the passion he carries for his music. A gentle soul and natural artist who was about to celebrate 20 years of career with a powerful new release: Infinite Roots, the album you can hear from today on.

Growing up in a DIY punk-rock environment, Fred has a fearless attitude of embracing the ups and downs life can throw at us. He is not afraid to call the big issues by their name and bravely stands his ground.

Fred carefully curated this album by selecting 10 themes that milestone his musical path until today. Fresh new versions of the songs were arranged to contrast and compliment the original takes. Freddy once again touched our hearts, singing us into the fair, just and green future he continues to fight for.

We are happy and proud to have gathered a group of immensely talented friends and professionals to work on this record.

Enjoy it and if you like it, buy it on bandcamp!

💥It's OUT NOW! New single and New Vídeo! Bring Up the Feeling (Infinite Roots) - LINK IN BIO

"Bring up The Feeling" (Infinite Roots) brings back the joy of listening to a classic, surprising with the freshness of the new instrumental arrangements and the vocal support of Loki (NL) and Anastácia Carvalho (PT/STP). "Bring up The Feeling" (Infinite Roots) reaffirms Frederico Oliveira's (Freddy Locks) love and respect for traditional and contemporary African-rooted music, roots reggae, and the commitment to the authenticity of the words it carries, to the rhythm of Freddy Locks' original compositions.
