GILLES LIONNET

Better known locally as El Manager, Gilles Lionnet formally started his professional career in the music industry in 1991, but his journey started in his youth when he and his family formed a band.
He pioneered Mouggae music, a fusion of elements of reggae music and the Moutya - a traditional African dance that is performed using the Tam Tam percussion made of goatskin.

Lionnet’s last album is titled ‘ A New Beginning’ and is a deep social commentary on the world today, a reverence for our Creole heritage and our connections of love.
