MUSICAL PROJECT
Since 2018

A shameless project that bets on music, humor and painted scenographies. Defending the feminization of calypso with multilingual and piquant songs that humorously narrate the intimate life of the protagonist.

BIO

Calypso es considera un crit de la llibertat i la resistència dels esclaus africans, i neix a l’arxipèlag del sud del carib. Alhora Calipso era una deessa coneguda per la seducció i la màgia irresistible. Ara bè, Calypso

mama, era una llegendària artista de blues/calipso de les Ba-

hames (1926-2014). Mama Calypso pren el relleu dels ritmes

caribenys i reivindica un nou ideal burlesc, la mare soltera.

​

Aquest projecte musical neix com a broma entre dos bons amics amb ganes de grabar les aventures i desaventuras amoroses de la protagonista.

​

Després de dos àlbums plens de cançons originals, My Coconut

(2019) i el Disco d’Or (2023), plens de cançons multilingües i

picarones de caràcter autobiogràfic i, sovint, farcides de crítica

i reflexió sobre el món de relacions sexoafectives. Aquest grup

emergeix enèrgic en un nou format cabaretenc.

​

Trobant-nos al principi de la trajectoria professional, pero no

artísitca, és a dir, sense havent-nos desvirgat al circuït oficial

però havent fet l’amor amb món underground, presentem un concert poc

convencional i del tot immersiu.

DOSSIER

Mama Calypso's Plan B is an energetic quartet that reinterprets the original songs in a profitable, economical, bold and versatile format. Led by the shameless Mama Calypso, this band of multi-instrumentalists offers a tropical and reedy proposal of danceable rhythms. They are as indispensable as the olive in the midday vermouth or the ice in the evening cocktail.

​

This is the least profitable and unrealistic original idea of the Mama Calypso project. It seems that due to its magnificence, this orchestra of romantics does not quite fit into some public budgets. It is also true that some of the members are exiled all over Europe, but they insist on continuing to play together, and it is this unbridled desire that brings them together once a year, in a unique tropical show, with surprises and guest artists. An incomparable concert full of magic that you cannot miss!
