Her warm and powerful voice and the polyrhythms of her band make her audiences both happy to be listening and wanting to dance. Dobet’s compositions encompass the Pan-African styles of Mandingue melodies to Congolese rumba, Ivory Coast Ziglibiti to Cameroon Bikoutsi and Ghanian High-Life to Zulu choirs. The sanza, the balafon, the calebasse and bongos are brought in to support the guitar, the vocal backup and Dobet’s voice. She sings in a range of African languages including Bété, Fon, Baoule, Lingala, Malinke, Mina or Bambara. She will bring a world of music to Lake Charles.
