LohArano is a powerful trio is led by the charismatic Mahalia on lead vocals and guitar. She assumes her feminism in a country where being a rocker woman is (almost) heretical.
Mika is on bass guitar, he doesn’t stay in place, he grooves with super-powerful rhythms even jazzy and funky tones. Natiana is the drummer, the flow is hectic, his tones hitting and striking. The term is brutal, metal, groovy, full of life.
In their powerful and uncompromising EP, LohArano talks about the brutal reality of Madagascar, which bleeds between muffled cries and complicit silences. It reflects a daily life that has become commonplace: disparitions, violence, exile. RODO (The reign of Outlaws) talks about the reign of the dahalo (thieves) who keep civilians living in fear. RUN & DIE is about people who flee and find themselves refugees in their own country. MPAKA TAOVA (Organ delears) talks about organ dealers who kidnap children.
