A leading soul artist on the independent music scene, MESS DREY has opened for internationally renowned bands and musicians (Chinese Man, Faada Freddy, Adrien Byron Burns, The Excitements…) and has performed at numerous jazz and contemporary music festivals (Argelliers Jazz’ Estival, Victoire 2, Jazz à Junas…).
Backed by a trio of musicians with an unstoppable groove, her live performance transcends musical boundaries. Organic funk, soulful melodies, vibrant jazz, gospel, and Afro-Caribbean influences blend together with complete artistic freedom.
Her latest album, EVE-olution, recorded with Ashley Kingsley (pianist for Prince, Jamiroquai…) and Will Parnell (percussionist and composer for the BBC), confirms a strong, modern, and fully accomplished artistic identity.
Regularly featured on radio stations and Web TV shows, this charismatic Haitian artist has earned a particularly fitting nickname:
“The Diva of Soul.”
Today, MESS DREY further expands her musical universe by incorporating the cello, bringing a rare sonic depth and a unique tonal richness. The organic warmth of this instrument enhances an already powerful and deeply embodied groove.
With a captivating voice, irresistible melodies, volcanic energy, and sincere emotion, MESS DREY delivers an intense, unifying, and generous live performance.
