info 

Master percussionist, Senegalese born singer-songwriter and performer Elage Diouf settled in Canada in 1996, to pursue a musical career that is still growing today. His music ? a blend of pop, world, blues, folk and asiko ? thrives at the artistic crossroad of artists like Carlinhos Brown, Peter Gabriel and Andres Cepeda. The musicality of the wolof language explains his singing mainly in his mother tongue. Melok?ane is a wolof word and refers to the reflection of a life's journey, at the present moment. The album, touches on subjects such as celebration and resilience, the fragility of life, challenges faced by immigrants' integrating into a new society and the personal aspect of spiritual bonds.
