'Dance, No One's Watching' is an ode to the sacred, yet joyous act of dancing, an album that musically guides you through a night out in the city, from the opening of possibilities as a new evening spans out ahead, to dawn’s final hours as the night comes to a close.

'Dance, No One's Watching' is an ode to the sacred, yet joyous act of dancing, an album that musically guides you through a night out in the city, from the opening of possibilities as a new evening spans out ahead, to dawn’s final hours as the night comes to a close. Written during a blistering 2023 which saw Ezra Collective tour the world, and become the first jazz act to win the Mercury Prize, Dance, No One's Watching is a documentation of the many dance floors they encountered. From London to Chicago, Lagos to Sydney, dance and rhythm connect us. These songs are a testament to that spirit.

2023 marque le grand retour de Fatoumata Diawara.
Après LAMOMALI (le projet d’afro-pop de -M- récompensé d’une Victoire de la Musique et d’un double album de platine), son album solo FENFO (nommé aux Grammy Awards et aux Victoires de la Musique) et des collaborations internationales à succès (Gorillaz, Disclosure…), l’une des plus grandes voix d’Afrique présente LONDON KO. Des invités de marque (-M-, Angie Stone, Roberto Fonseca, Yemi Alade, le rappeur ghanéen M.anifest) et 6 titres co-réalisés avec Damon Albarn : une réconciliation parfaite entre sons synthétiques et rythmes traditionnels maliens ; une plongée dans un univers éclectique et résolument avant-gardiste.
