Ipswich Civic Centre Presents… Join us for a special evening celebrating Mediterranean culture through songs and culinary delights.
Led by French-Australian singer Pauline Maudy (2023 Australian Folk Artist of the Year), who sings with ease in an array of languages, MZAZA are a six-piece band with a line-up of talented musicians from around the globe, and an aesthetic said to recall the free-spirited romanticism of Lhasa de Sela or redoubtable France-based collective Lo’Jo. Their songs draw inspiration from the cultural heritage of their members and collaborators, predominantly from France, the Mediterranean and the Balkans.
This multi-award winning group has already connected audiences across extensive Australian and European tours, and supported acts such as Baba Zula (TUR), the Violent Femmes (USA),Yasmin Levy (ISR), and DJ Click (FR). MZAZA’s third studio album ‘The Birth and Death of Stars’, described by Songlines Magazine as “a supernova of an album”, was recorded in Athens, has been extensively toured in major arts festivals and theatres in Australia (50+ shows) and is accompanied by a critically-acclaimed theatre show devised in collaboration with director Benjamin Knapton (C!RCA).
The impressive musicianship of MZAZA – deftly realised with vocal harmonies, accordion, violin, shah kaman (Persian spike-fiddle), percussion, drums, double bass and guitar – embraces diversity, the old and the new, the familiar and the foreign.
