Voix de Fête Festival: Swift Guad & Sentin’l

Booking Required

Swift Guad (from Montreuil) and Geneva’s Sentin’l present a raw, collaborative rap project that blends precise, image-driven lyricism with an uncompromising, truth-telling delivery. After residencies in the mountains and recording sessions in Morocco, they unveil an intimate live set stripped of décor where beats and words take center stage. The production favors space and atmosphere, shifting from tight tension to moments of fragile warmth as two distinct voices interrogate identity, memory and the politics of voice.
