AVALANCHE KAITO + SPECIAL GUESTS

Avalanche Kaito could be described as “grrriot_punk_noise”. Burkinabe singer Kaito Winse, the guardian of the ancestral griot tradition, rubs shoulders with the multiform approaches of drummer and “pure dataist” Benjamin Chaval and anarcho-guitarist Nico Gitto in an explosive combination.

In 2022, the band released their first EP, Dabalomuni, followed by a homonymous album, both on Glitterbeat. Also performing in several showcase festivals like MIL or ESNS, the band generates a real word-of-mouth movement. Everywhere, professionals and audiences receive them as a new sensation.

In 2022, Grammy commissioned Avalanche Kaito to make a live video that was broadcast on the networks of the prestigious institution. In March 2023 KEXP released a live session shot at ESNS in January and The Wire published a feature about the band. This year, the band continued to scour the festival circuit, crossing the Channel twice (Supersonic, End of the Road...). End-of-year highlight: WOMEX.

In 2024, they released their second album Talitakum via Glitterbeat and have been on tour again all around Europe and beyond.

The project seems in many ways unique in the musical landscape, managing to combine both a seductive trance power and a wicked experimental side.
