GW Lisner Auditorium and Alliance Française DC present
Orange Blossom

Hand-picked to open for Robert Plant’s recent world-tour and critically acclaimed in their native France, Orange Blossom combines four musicians from different backgrounds and cultures into a seamless, magnificent whole. They include the timeless, evocative voice of a French-Algerian singer; a classically-trained and ex-punk violinist; a percussionist born in France but reborn among the people and music of West Africa and a Mexican drummer and expert programmer. 

Their new album, Everything Must Change, is an amalgam of European electro-beats, West African rhythms, Arabic and Middle Eastern melodies and Western rock. Each song spans the globe, incorporating sources as diverse as Indian rhythms, African percussion, Bulgarian voices and Tchaikovsky.

“If you want to catapult multiculturalism to its furthest parameters, look no further than Orange Blossom.” - The Independent

“I admire their compulsive rhythms and soulful vocals … it’s a serene hypnosis” – Robert Plant
