African Chillout – Adelaide Fringe Festival 2021

Manadi Lopa started life in North-West Africa, and is now based in Adelaide creating music of world standard and with a special meaning. 

Manadi chatted to me about his music, the concert, and how it will help in his mission to preserve his mother tongue, Sissala within the event that features Afircan Zongo and Roots Reggae music. 

In a world first, Manadi is putting Sissala words to music, and will be teaching the audience the lyrics of one of these songs to connect them with his home language, that is fighting for survival.
 
Listen to Andy’s chat with Manadi on the African Chillout episode of That Entertainment Podcast.
