The Fondation Cartier pour l\u2019art contemporain is hosting a (digital) concert by Emel! A unique evening on Friday\u00a018\u00a0December, with the woman who was the voice of the Tunisian Revolution and who will be performing her covers of David Bowie, Nirvana and The Cranberries, to name a few. We\u2019re already tingling with anticipation.<\/h4>\n

In spring\u00a02020, while confined in her home town of Tunis with her laptop, tape recorder and a borrowed classical guitar singer obtained thanks to the help of a fan on Facebook, Emel Mathlouthi filmed herself on a rooftop, singing \u201cHolm<\/em>\u201d. A YouTube phenomenon. Three\u00a0million views later, she released a double album, The Tunis Diaries <\/em>(*), featuring a re-reading of her repertoire (Day) and an eclectic selection of haunting - confirmed by SoBARNES! - covers (Night).<\/p>\n
