This is one of the great musical masses of the year, to which you may go, on June 2, 4 or 5 at the Bois de Vincennes (1), to applaud Gorillaz, Phoenix or PNL.
The event in which nothing, not showers as likely as queues, will not discourage you.
And especially not to go and taste a dish signed Adrien Cachot or Alessandra Montagne at the Chef Lab, a new exclusively plant-based food space, or to frown in front of a
talk
by Hugo Clément or the adventurer Mike Horn on the Think Tank stage, dedicated to innovative ideas.
In addition to these essentials that have inspired many other festivals, We Love Green also allows you to discover rare or emerging artists.
Among which these 5 musicians, surveyors of new fascinating sound territories.
To discover

Sama' Abdulhadi DR
She almost stopped playing at We Love Green, or elsewhere: at the end of 2020, the Palestinian DJ was imprisoned for having given a concert at Nabi Moussa, an archaeological and religious site located in the occupied West Bank.
It will take an international petition and a government commission of inquiry for her to finally be released on bail a few days later, while remaining for a long time suspended from leaving the territory.
Today, Sama' Abdulhadi can travel.
We run to lose ourselves in its vigorous and energetic techno, filled with the urgency of going beyond the limits.
Nathy Peluso

Nathy Peluso DR
She defines herself as a "nasty girl fantastic" (naughty fantastic girl, editor's
note
): the Argentinian musician, a new Spanish-speaking icon whose first album,
Calambre
, was released in 2020, does not forbid anything, nor excesses, neither provocation, nor songs about devouring pizza or boys.
Above all, she dares to mix influences that claim total freedom, from the most radio pop to reggaeton, passing through salsa, hip-hop, or traditional boleros.
Probably one of the craziest concerts of the festival.
coffee

Koffee DR
Originally from Kingston, Jamaica, Mikayla Victoria Simpson alias Koffee, gives a lively and modern touch to the music that made her island famous.
The one who, at 19, was the youngest woman to receive the Grammy Award for best reggae album (for her EP
Rapture
, in 2019) released her first real album this year, the aptly named
Gifted (gifted, editor's note)
.
Where its melodic and fluid flow swings on trap or dancehall beats that grab your hips from the first verses.
“If you know me, you know that I live the best moments of my life.
Don't slow me down,” she sings on the bright
West Indies
.
On the contrary, we follow it step by step.
Okaylou

Oklou Till Janz
His debut mixtape,
Galore
, released in 2020, felt like a dream.
Of those made by today's young girls, filled with futuristic planets and mysterious animals, voluble piano chords and majestic synths.
On stage, without much artifice, the French Oklou, alone at the controls, proves her virtuosity while deploying an incredible grace.
A precious artist, whose concerts reach heights of beauty.
eartheater

Eartheater Sam Clarke
Both stirring and incantatory, the music of Earthheater evokes both ancestral songs and those that will punctuate the cultures to come.
Producer, composer and multi-instrumentalist, the American Alexandra Drewchin builds her songs like so many imaginary territories, galaxies populated by digital rivers and fantastic creatures ready to arise, in a burst of pixels, from digital lairs that one would have thought impenetrable. .
The new world of electro?
