Manou Gallo Groove Orchestra

Ivory Coast / Belgium

Bassist, guitarist, percussionist, singer and songwriter ; it’s obvious the fairy godmother was very busy over Manou Gallo’s cot and never left her since she moved to Europe from Ivory Coast.  Manou Gallo mixes her African roots with blues, funk and contemporary soul music. This has lead her to new musical territories and international career.

Manou Gallo has released 3 albums and has also been the subject of a musical documentary “Manou Gallo, Rhythm Gal”. In 2009, she received the prestigious MTV Africa price as “Best performing artist of Ivory Coast” and was in the TOP 10 of “the most influents african bass players of the world stage” in 2013 (by Forbes Africa Magazine).

Manou Gallo now realises her dream to perform with her own brass section and women band with her project  Manou Gallo Groove Orchestra.  Alongside musicians with jazz and classical backgrounds, Manou is the maestro creating a festive show overflowing with joy, jazz, groove, funk and afro-beat.
