A contemporary music venue located in Toulouse's Borderouge district since 2014, the Metronum manages 2 concert halls with 600 and 200 seats, 3 rehearsal and support studios, artist residencies, a women's music mentoring program (the "Women Metronum Academy"), cultural initiatives and the Rio Loco festival, which has been bringing world music to Toulouse since 1995. The Metronum was awarded the SMAC label on July 5, 2024.
In partnership with MaMA, discover the winners of the 4th edition of the Women Metronum Academy: Augusta and Anaïs Rosso, for a showcase in the legendary Trois Baudets venue.
Armed with a simple guitar and her crystalline voice, Augusta creates a gentle, minimalist folk sound. Somewhere between Laura Marling and Joni Mitchell, she draws us into her comforting, intimate universe. Anaïs Rosso, at the crossroads of blues, opera and electronics, blends guitar, machines and tenor voice. She explores the intimate and the universal, through multiple characters embodied on stage.
And to mark the France-Brazil 2025 Season, we're also presenting Brazilian artist Bia-Ferreira, mentor of the World WMA (international extension of the WMA). A committed artist, Bia has become a powerful voice on stage and beyond for anti-racist, feminist and queer struggles, with her Afro-Brazilian soul music.
Created in 2020, the Women Metronum Academy is a mentoring scheme for female artists in all their plurality carrying a solo project in contemporary music. Focused on support, development and empowerment, the scheme aims to strengthen women's ability to act and exist in today's music scene. Stronger TogetHER!
