Alino Yes Papa & Le Yes Papa Groov‘

Their songs tell stories, dealing with love, social change, and personal development. At the heart of every tour are Alino Yes Papa and Yes Mama as the creative core.

He, Alain C. Alladayè, is a Beninese singer, songwriter, and guitarist. She, Luise Richter-Alladayè, is a jazz singer from the small village of Pütte near Stralsund. Depending on the context and tour, the two invite additional musicians from Benin, the African diaspora, or Europe to join them. What began as a necessity soon evolved into a deliberate artistic concept: every tour becomes a unique encounter. Each lineup brings its own influences, timbres, and interpretations. This creates a vibrant, ever-evolving sound—characterized by openness, improvisation, and cultural exchange.
