Burning with a distinct & intoxicating life force, COCOSOL, is a beautiful French Canadian African, International Songstress, multi-instrumentalist and most of all a dedicated Yogini. Her compositions are spirited, world funk symphonies, woven with catchy guitar licks, sultry voices, fiery rhythms and longing melodies with a message, a personal call for Love! Political and soulful her trance like performances are timeless and intimate.
