ABOUT KIZABA – https://www.kizaba.ca/ LIONEL KIZABA, is a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, pioneer of Afro-Congolese electro music, based in Montreal, Canada, who sings in French, English, Kikongo, and Lingala. The Kizaba show offers a musically rich style reminiscent of the Congo and is a futuristic Afro journey “Fumu na betu”, for which he creates vocalizations inspired by his ancestors and mixes sounds of soukous-Congolese, Afrobeat and Pop rock. On stage, he uses his vocals, drums, and percussion by mixing electronic music and traditional sounds from the Congo to create an Afro-Futurist world.
