“Raw, with elaborate rhythms, Raíz Viva’s performance invited a kind of trance” (Le Devoir, 2025). Winner of the Syli d’argent 2025 for world music, this quintet, whose name means “living roots”, offers a diversity of rhythms, all of which lead back to their original cumbia! Featuring wind instruments and percussion, their music is deeply rooted in Afro-Colombian traditions, the spirit of festivity, the celebration of nature and community sharing, and brings together chalupa, bullerengue, tambora and even Brazilian samba and Quebecois trad.
