Sahra Halgan Trio

Sahra Halgan is an artist from Somaliland. It’s in Lyon, France, where she lived for 20 years, that she met french musicians Aymeric Krol and Mael Saletes with whom she founded this musical trio. The band’s dream is to show the world the culture of the Somaliland people, their sufferings and joys, in a pure un-artificial musical form. Today, Sahra lives in Hargeisa, the capital of Somaliland, where she has founded the only place in the country where musicians and poets can produce themselves. She continues to pursue her artistic journey, all the while engaging herself as a politician in her country. Across the world, she continues to spread the message of recognition of her country within the international community and ensuring that the stability her country has earned with such difficulty is not overtuned and reduced to the violence of the past.
