About
Idrissa Sidibé, known by his stage names Tonton Idriss or Idriss le Viking Noir, is a Malian artist and entertainer born in Abidjan, Ivory Coast. His baptism into the performing arts came at the dawn of the 2000s, when his fairy godmother bestowed upon him a multidisciplinary gift: theater, music, dance, singing, and storytelling. A pillar of the Tassouma Woyo group in Mali, he collaborated with Toumani Diabaté on "Seliba" before launching his solo career in 2009. Based in Canada since 2019, his music blends the joy of Abidjan with soul, reggae, and contemporary sounds.
Recognized in West Africa, Morocco, France, and America, he explores all African musical genres. His album Keyzit (2024) illustrates his sensitivity, particularly with M'mah Koumba, a tribute to his mother. On stage, Idrissa Sidibé invites the audience to dance and shares his generous music, combining emotion, virtuosity, and cultural transmission.
The activity takes place in all weather conditions, unless safety is compromised
