Born of multiple roots, Mezar is a project inspired by the billions of dust particles that each of us sows along the way. From this wandering through the pursuit of life, we explore the possibilities of a music whose boundaries move with the times. After winning the Prix Révélations Radio-Canada in Montreal in 2019, the nomadic souls behind this post-Diwan project moved to France to write their new album.
"Sohan" will be released in May 2024 with the support of the Canada Council for the Arts. It invites us on a poetic journey inspired by the encounter between an astronaut and a Tuareg united in their quest for a lost star. A fantasy of a meeting between Hasna El Becharia and Brian Eno, who join forces to explore the unknown paths of memory and reinvent the figure of the nomad driven by boundless curiosity.
