Mr.KAB

Biografia

Mr. KAB is a fresh and real bundle of energy combining the best of both worlds (music and dance) bringing his own twist to the Music world with his songs, as well as his passion and infectious personality.

The journey to becoming Mr. KAB started as a renowned and accomplished professional dancer, one of the fine flowers of Swiss contemporary dance.

Switzerland took a central role when his urge to further pursue his education, brought him in 2004 to western Switzerland where he refined his skills in classical and contemporary dance with choreographer Gilles Jobin, Foowfa Imobilité, La Ribot, Marco Berretini et al. and where he finally settled down in Vevey.

During the years to come he was able to share his talent and skills across global stages (Europe, Japan, Brazil Canada etc.), as well as through his own creations, such as the successful ‘Corps Animal’, ‘Cétait pas moi-même’ and ‘A la frontière du visible’ that were developed in Switzerland.

He is known and appreciated not just for his talent and strong stage presence, but also for his professionalism and perfectionism, as well as his open minded and
humble personality, that makes it a pleasure to work with him and makes it an unforgettable experience to see him perform.

The stage is his second home and is where Mr. KAB becomes alive and casts his spell over you.

Even if he started singing at a later stage, music has accompanied him from early ages through dance, like his best invisible friend, and has always been part of his life. Be it bringing the rhythm alive through movement, sharing a story through a visual and musical creation or while teaching.

His curiosity and eagerness to share his experiences, Mr. KAB contributed in 2010 to a sociological research on the topic of “Gender socialization, classical and contemporary dance” carried out by the University of Lausanne

Therefore, it is a natural given that Mr. KAB is now combining his fascination and love for body language as well as his pass ion for music – as one without the other is not possible for Mr. KAB.

By connecting dance, the engine of his art, to music he creates his own particular explosive style: AFRO WAVE DANCE: it combi nes the two forms of expression.

AFRO WAVE DANCE is a mixture of several styles such as POP, HIP HOP, SAMBA, SALSA, COUPE DECALE among others, based on the rhythm of drums. It is from this exciting cocktail of rhythm and dance that MR KAB was born.
