Zap Mama is electric yet calming.
by TheRegalSlums on 2/10/15Variety Playhouse - AtlantaZap Mama is a physical experience for me, so my descriptions with words aren't everything. I was introduced to her by my boyfriend about 14 years ago and the music resonated. It was like traveling to somewhere beautiful for the first time or enjoying a new food flavor. There was a song for every mood I ever experienced and songs that provoked new feelings or new levels to my emotions. It motivated and afflated and satisfied through the screens and speakers, so I had to experience it live. She had the whole crowd synchronously breathing. When something leaves you wanting more, it's good and bad at the same damn time. To put it lightly...I'm a fan. I gave four stars only because it felt too short, but that might've just been me. If I were there earlier to mingle to a DJ set or if I were able to get to meet Marie Daulne; I might've felt like I got a complete experience and not left wanting more.
