Tryo
A French group known for their vibrant blend of acoustic-driven reggae and mix of political and celebratory themes, Tryo emerged in the late '90s, eventually climbing the charts all the way to number one with their fourth album, Ce que l'on sème, in 2008. Boasting three strong singers and a unique musical approach, Tryo remained popular throughout the next decade, notching a chart-topper with 2012's Ladilafé and later celebrating a quarter-century together with 2020's XXV ans.
Tryo was formed in 1995 when former M'Panada members Manu Eveno (called simply Manu) and Cyril Celestin (called Guizmo) joined forces with Christophe Mali (who went by his last name). The group's rich harmonies and acoustic reggae-inspired songwriting was soon augmented by percussionist Daniel Bravo (nicknamed Danielito), and they spent a few years performing at regional festivals and building up a fan base. Tryo made their debut in 1998 with the album Mamagubida, a title created by connecting the first syllable of each member's name (plus that of their manager, Sebastien "Bibou" Pujol).
Over subsequent releases like 2000's Faut Qu'lls S'Activent and 2003's Grain de Sable the band honed their unique mix of festive and sometimes fiery reggae with detours into funk, folk, and pop. Tryo captured their energetic live show on the 2004 concert album De Bouches a Oreilles, which was recorded at the famous Olympia Theatre in Paris. In 2008, the band returned with their fourth studio album, Ce que l'on sème, which hit number one on the French charts. After a second live album, Sous les Etoiles, Tryo topped the charts again with 2012's Ladilafé, marking another high point in their career. The band managed two more albums -- Né quelque part (2014) and Vent debout (2016) -- in quick succession, then began the next decade with 2020's XXV ans, celebrating their 25th anniversary in the process. Following 2021's Chants de bataille, Manu announced his departure from the Tryo.
