Tuesday, June 30 - 9 p.m. A CAPPELLA NIGHT Concert with the group SCAT’N’SCRATCH Scat’n’Scratch (a cappella / beatbox) takes you into a 100% vocal world through an eclectic repertoire blending soul, pop, reggae and contemporary music. Led by six artists from varied musical backgrounds, the group offers a rhythmic, funny and surprising show where vocal harmonies and beatbox come together with energy... with just one instrument: the voice! Opening the evening is the group Jam'Acap, also an a cappella vocal group. Thursday, July 2 - 9 p.m. AFRICAN BRASS BAND NIGHT Concert with the group AJAMO AJAMO (Afro-Jam-Orchestra) is a themed orchestra at the Jazz school of Montpellier since 2022, enthusiastically, energetically and generously performing covers and compositions inspired by the Nigerian-style afrobeat of the era of the great Fela Kuti. Under the direction of ethnomusicologist Thomas Vahle, a specialist in Peul-Mandingue flute, with 15 years of experience in Mory Kanté’s orchestra Wednesday, July 8 - 9 p.m. CUBAN SALSA NIGHT Concert with the group SOMOS GENTE "Somos Gente" is a Cuban music group that invites you to discover the full richness and energy of Cuba’s rhythms.

Thursday, July 9 - 9 p.m. CROSS-CULTURAL SONG NIGHT Concert with the group LES BARBEAUX For 20 years now, Les Barbeaux have been traveling the roads of France and Europe, spreading powerful, lively and cross-cultural live music. Wearing their Mediterranean identity with pride, these stage devils revisit two decades of creation, moving between festive songs, ska, rock, cumbia and electro-Balkan influences. A concert like one big, slightly wild family party, where everyone and every form of expression will find its place! Friday, July 10 - 9 p.m. CUMBIA AND RUMBA NIGHT Concert with the group QUE TENGO An emerging figure on today’s scene, Que Tengo is a machine with a real beating heart, carrying the energy and emotion of its magnetic Hispanic-Moroccan singer Ámbar Gonzalez Bouab. This quartet delivers an explosive cocktail of Afro-Latin and urban music, where cumbia, rumba and soukous meet the weight of hip-hop and the lyrical power of chanson.
