Mehdi Cayenne - Animal chic
Hanging upside down from the railing of a New York subway, capturing images without permission, Mehdi Cayenne embodies the ardor and verve of the adventurous artist.
A wacky crooner unafraid of paradoxes, he delivers songs of survival with passion and a unique groove. In 6 albums, hundreds of shows, dozens of awards, radio reviews and soundtracks - this disarmingly charismatic mad dog has developed his eclectic, minimalist and evocative approach. From prison to retirement home, from international festivals to sold-out Zenith opening acts, he has performed across Canada, as well as in France, Belgium, Switzerland, Italy, Luxembourg, Armenia and Russia. Mehdi has been invited to many major festivals here and in Europe, and has opened for such luminaries as Dumas, Louis-Jean Cormier, Feu!, Chatterton, Michel Fugain and Saul Williams. Recently nominated for a Gémeaux for the musical TV series Zik - which he hosts and for which he provides the soundtrack - his new album Animal Chic heralds an unprecedented adventure in sound!
