Baco and Urban Plant

Bio

Baco & Urban Plant is led by Baco, composer and author, who began playing the electric guitar at ten.

Baco has also distinguished himself as an activist leader of Mahoranese culture, whose mission is to promote traditional and contemporary music. He has performed in Africa, Asia and Europe and has done collaborations with such artists as Keziah Jones, Hanifa Walidah and Earl Blaize.

The credo of Baco and his band, Urban Plant, is to bring to life the legacy left by black music and to mingle it with the heritage of today's music through the so-called style "R'n'G".
R'n'G is an atypical and surprising style thought by the artist himself and offering an original mix of music styles: the "R" represents the immeasurable contribution of rock, rap, reggae music, and the "G" refers to the goma, drum in Bantu language, the African pulse.

The band's latest album, "Rocking my roots", brings this brand new genre to light. Each of its 23 tracks illustrates this innovation, this "time before time", where the ternary rythm meets the binary rythm awakening body and mind.

One of the goals of Baco & Urban Plant band for the year 2023-2024 is to forge links with the mother continent and the Indian Ocean region. In this context, the band began a tour in July in Mayotte then in Kenya.

Hybrid in its style of music, the band is also hybrid in its composition with Mahoran musicians but also Mauritians and Comorians.

Details about the musicians:
Baco: guitar and vocals / Hans Sournois: drums / Timan : keyboard, Mathieu Sournois: bass / Yony Lagrandeur: guitar / Bokelo: Kayamba player / Coudje: Goma/Congas/Bells player / Corine: chorus / Christelle : chorus.
