Listen: The Rodolphe Burger festival pays tribute to Rachid Taha

 

Rodolphe Burger and his group Kat Onoma left their mark on French rock in the 80s and 90s. A fervent defender of the universality of music, in 2001 he created the C’est Dans La Vallée festival, in Sainte-Marie-Aux-Mines in Haut-Rhin.

Crédit Mutuel supported this atypical festival, the 15th edition of which was held from October 19 to 22, 2023, marked by a vibrant tribute to Rachid Taha.

In this exclusive interview, Rodolphe Burger evokes the memory of the singer of Carte de Séjour and presents the Mademoiselle trio, which he forms with Mehdi Haddab and Sofiane Saïdi.
