RE#ENCOUNTER BRINGS SOME OF BRUSSELS’ MOST SOULFUL VOICES TOGETHER AROUND A TRANCE-DRIVEN EXPLORATION OF GNAWA MUSIC AND ITS GLOBAL CONNECTIONS. GNAWA GROOVES FUSE WITH CUMBIA CHANTS, GRIOT STORYTELLING, AND ECSTATIC JAZZ IMPROVISATION IN A VIBRANT, DANCEABLE SOUNDSCAPE THAT BREATHES SPONTANEITY, AUTHENTICITY, AND AN AFFINITY FOR ALL THINGS SACRED. MORE THAN A CONCERT, A RE#ENCOUNTER IS A LIVING RITUAL — MERGING MUSIC, STORYTELLING, AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION, AND VISUALS INTO A POWERFUL SHARED EXPERIENCE. Join a great community of local musicians! 🤝 Come with your instrument, share your talent, and your good vibes for a groovy night of collaboration. Every style is welcome on stage! 🎺🪕
