context_page_description: Tryo is a French-language 'unplugged' ska acoustic band, popular in Europe and Quebec, with three French guitarists, a percussionist, and a producer: Guizmo, Christophe Mali, Manu Eveno, Daniel "Danielito" Bravo and Bibou.
  Tryo are popular in France partly due to their politically charged lyrics, whilst also showing a fun side with a range of humorous songs, especially in live performances.
  They take a left wing stance, criticising various French politicians such as Charles Pasqua and Jean-Marie Le Pen and world leaders in their music. The band has a "tolerant" view on cannabis, demonstrated by "La Main Verte" from the Mamagubida album. Drug references are reduced in their later albums.
  They have sold 900,000 albums. They had their 10-year anniversary in 2005, followed by a nationwide tour. Tryo have four studio albums, a double CD live album and two live DVDs.
  Band members were also active in independent work. Christophe Mali released a solo album Je vous emmène in April 2006. Guitarist and songwriter Guizmo was part of the band Pause.
  In August 2012 they released new album called Ladilafé, a tribute to Patricia Bonnetaud who died in February 2012.
context_section_description: Guizmo, real name Cyril Célestin, born in the 14e arrondissement in Paris on 11 April 1972, singer, composer, and guitarist for Tryo, has had a prosperous solo career on his own. He grew up in Cachan in an HLM for low income families. He started performing as a 14-year-old, leaving school after high school. With Manu Eveno, whom he met in 1989 when he was 17, they both formed part of M'Panada, a reggae rock and funk group, for almost 5 years. The band split up in 1994. With Emmanuel "Manu" Eveno and Christophe Mali, he took part in the musical comedy Histoire de piano written by Christophe Mali and Maïa Rubinstein. This was the beginning for the eventual formation of Tryo.
  Besides Tryo, Guizmo was active in the music collective Desert Rebel, a joint cultural project launched by Tuareg guitarist Abdallah ag Oumbadougou. Desert Rebel made a tour of Niger.
