× Hailing from Côte d’Ivoire, Dobet Gnahoré is a virtuosic singer, dancer, percussionist, and songwriter who has taken the modern Afropop sounds of her country in exciting new directions. A 2010 Grammy winner, Dobet Gnahoré is well-known for her jaw-dropping dance moves, powerful stage presence and richly emotional vocal style.

Gnahoré was born into one of Côte d’Ivoire’s most prestigious musical families. Her father, the renowned master percussionist Boni Gnahoré, rigorously trained her in the music, dance, theatre, fashion and poetry that serve as her foundation to this day. In recent years, Dobet has branched out from the acoustic music that defined her early career to explore modern Afropop with its danceable grooves, electronic beats, nimble electric guitar lines and catchy melodic hooks.

Exploding with hope and positivity, Dobet’s new songs explore the concept of freedom - the freedom to blend the urban energy of modern Africa with its vibrant ancestral rhythms - the freedom to pay tribute to the women of today and tomorrow, to use her words and image to empower a new generation of daring, strong and independent African women.
