CLOSING NIGHT AT THE TRIANON

DAVID WALTERS • K.O.G • TRIBEQA

"I am genuinely excited to be performing at this event. My work is rooted in the power, beauty, and legacy of black rhythm and soul, so taking part in a night that lifts up those voices feels deeply meaningful. Sharing the stage with artists who carry the same fire is something I value. I am so so excited to bring my full energy to the Trianon and connect with everyone there." - Kweku Sackey

The 19th edition of Au Fil des Voix ends in a blaze of glory at the Trianon with a night dedicated to pan-African groove. Three leading and adventurous sonic artists — David Walters, K.O.G, and Tribeqa — celebrate great Black music, from Afro-Caribbean roots to electronic pulses. A burning, festive, and radiant journey.

David Walters • Creole Groove

David Walters brings to life a singular universe where electronic beats and Afro-Caribbean rhythms join in a bright trance. A global musical traveler, he weaves from Marseille a vibrant, mixed, and sun-soaked sound where Creole speaks with the sounds of the world. From Soleil Kreyol to Soul Tropical, his path embodies a joyful and conscious global spirit, moving between intoxicating groove and spirituality. Early 2026 marks his return with Ti Love, an album whose first single, Kité Koulé, featuring Keziah Jones, has already flooded the airwaves. He will present it for the first time in Paris to close Au Fil des Voix. On stage, surrounded by kindred musicians, he turns each concert into a dancing voyage, a true celebration of connection and movement.

K.O.G (Kweku of Ghana) • Afro-Fusion Frenzy

Singer, rapper, percussionist, and magnetic showman, K.O.G moves between afrobeat, hip-hop, soul, and highlife with unmatched stage energy. Signed to Heavenly Sweetness and produced by Guts, he delivers music of fire and light that is both committed and festive, blending spiritual fervor, social awareness, and pure euphoria. K.O.G preaches freedom through groove, unity through rhythm, and joy as a revolutionary force. Live, he sweeps everything along with him. Joined by Aziza Jaye (formerly of Nubyan Twist) in a soundsystem format, K.O.G will close the night with his explosive energy, celebrating his afrosonic roots and the raw joy of electronic bass intertwined with live percussion and exhilarating vocal performances. An irresistible sonic trance.

Tribeqa • Afro-soul-jazz-hip-hop.

After three critically acclaimed albums and 12 years since their third and most recent release, Tribeqa makes a major return with Sumu, which they will present exclusively to the Parisian public on the Trianon stage. Blending African roots, the drive of jazz, and the power of hip-hop, Tribeqa has carved out a unique path in the French music landscape from their home base in Nantes. Built around balafon, guitars, and percussion, the group shapes an organic and groovy sound that builds bridges between continents and breathes meeting and collective energy. With Tribeqa, the world is danced and shared, a sonic experience that is as poetic as it is uplifting.
