These young lads brought a fresh and new sound into the fest-noz field, but also into world music. Fifteen years later the kids have grown, and their talent also. Their minds and ears open on the world, and thanks to the hundreds of musical encounters that ponctuated their musical carrier, they integrated to their original sound different inspirations drawn from music from all over the world.» La Carène - Concert Hall «Fifteen years after their beginnings, and after performing all over Europe, the most rock’n’roll band of the fest-noz scene decided to reinvent istelf, to reinterpret their most well known tunes for a new show called « El-TaQa ». The singer Sofiane Saidi, inspired by Cheika Rimiti, Oum Kalthoum, Otis Redding, incorporates his voice and his language to the compositions of the breton musicians. On stage, his charisma, his rap and traditional style will surprise the audience. Between breton and algerian music, rock and hip-hop : we promise you a heated atmosfere ! » Sylvain Girault Festival Eurofonik STARTIJENN A musical creation to celebrate 15 years on stage Konogan AN HABASK biniou, bombard and uilleann-pipes « El-TaQa » is the result of two residences in may 2012 at the Carène, music hall of Brest, and in october Kaou GWENN 2012 at the Arts Centre of Concarneau. percussions This new creation will be recorded into a studio album in 2013.

After three albums, and lots of concerts, Startijenn has become a major phenomenon of the breton musical scene. This quintet, one hundred percent musical, remains unbeaten when provoking energy deflagrations during « festoù-noz » , where they have forged an identity, practice, and notoriety. Their sound takes root in their breton culture, and gives to traditionnal music a big dose of rock energy. Their last two albums, rewarded with the « Breton music disk of the year », and their multiple stage experiences, has permitted Startijenn to become a real world-music band. While on their new creation « El-Taqa », Startijenn is also preparing a new album coming out in 2014, with the participation of bass player Julien Stevenin.
