Bab L’ Bluz & Les Amazones d’Afrique announce socially distanced shows
After several months of cancelled tours and festivals, artists are beginning to resume touring, albeit under new COVID19 restrictions. We're pleased to announce that Les Amazones d'Afrique and Bab L' Bluz are two bands on our roster who have been able to confirm a series of new socially distanced shows, primarily in France.
Les Amazones d’Afrique will resume their French tour in support of the album Amazones Power, which was cut short in March when the COVID crisis began. They will begin with a show this Thursday at La Dynamo in Pantin, Paris, and continue throughout October and Novemeber. Looking ahead to 2021, they have confirmed dates in February and March, with more to be announced soon.
Following the critical success of their debut album release in June, Bab L’ Bluz have a short run of shows in France this autumn, as well as a slot at Ethnos Festival in Italy later this week.
