DATE: Friday 16th May

TICKETS: Early bird £14 / Advance Online £16 / On The Door £18
La Dame Blanche intertwines her native Afro-Cuban influences with hip-hop, trap,
reggae, dancehall and reggaeton beats. The musical project of the singer and fluti
Yaite Ramos Rodríguez recognizes her on stage as a revelation of rap in Spanish,
with an energetic performance that mixes the Latin and the urban, the fierce and the
sensual.
Born in a family of musicians, Yaite was raised by sons, rumbas and boleros and
began to explore, from the classical flute, the creation of her own musical language.
Life took her to perform on stages around the world, collaborating for the first time
with Latin jazz, reggae and cumbia artists. These experiences converged in the
appearance of La Dame Blanche. From port to port, this mystical character embarks
on a ritual that rescues silenced stories from everyday life, and intertwines them
with powerful beats that spontaneously dialogue with the feminine company of the
flute. Since “Pirata”, her first album release, La Dame Blanche navigates with ease
the explosive lyrics of Cuban urban hip hop.
La Dame Blanche has five albums to her credit as well as numerous collaborations
with artists from around the world. For more than a decade, their songs have sought
to humbly enter homes as an irreverent shout that empowers and soothes with joy
the true things in life.
