ALI AMRAN

If he draws his source from his native Kabylia, Ali Amran distils a skilful mix of genres which makes the originality of his music. On vocals and acoustic guitar, he approaches a stripped-down style, without embellishment. His text songs, like his melodic sense, convey the soul of a culture too often muzzled; his compositions, for their part, borrow their rhythm from the folk rock universe, with accents sometimes blues sometimes pop. The result is a very special harmony, like her voice, with its soft and deep timbre.

Ali Amran has now conquered a large audience, as well as the recognition of his peers, like Idir, Abranis, or even Takfarinas, who inscribe his artistic approach, like a new breath, in the history of the Kabyle song.
