A singer-songwriter, actress, and activist who headlined at Womad in 2019. Angelique Kidjo has had a stellar career that saw her begin singing from the age of 6 and after escaping political turmoil in Africa - relocate to France - rising from poverty to become a Grammy Award-winning artist with an impressive back catalogue of albums. Little wonder she has been hailed by Time magazine as "Africa's premier diva".
