Originally from the remote island of La Reunion, but now based in France, Davy's music is sourced from Reunion... a folk form 'Maloya' which is a unique amalgamation of African slave chants and rhythms, unique traditional instruments and more...

If one were to define Davy Sicard's quest as refleted in his music, it would be for search for truth, a search for personal identity, a spiritual quest, and finally recognition of a collective identity, all firmly anchored in his core - Reunion Malagasy, Indian, born in the suburbs of Paris... anchored in Creole culture. Between whirling waltz, reggae, blues and ballads, the special ingredient in this case is Davy's beautiful voice which glides across the music like a scrumptious coating, pure sweet and expressive.

A master of modern 'Maloya', Davy Sicard's music is all about universal themes such as slavery and reconciliation. His songs weave a powerful thread between the ancient world and today's modernity with his particular brand of live energy on stage.
