Samito is a Mozambican/Canadian singer-songwriter. Named Radio-Canada's 2015-16 Revelation in world music, Samito blends highly rhythmic compositions and texts inspired from his African roots and his childhood spent in Maputo. Nostalgia meets political satire, loaded on rhythms and lyrics written in Portuguese, English, French and Tswa. With his first album to be released in Spring 2016 on Costume Records, the artist wants to bring the groove into a new era, one where modern Afro sounds are the heart of musical trends.
