In the back is the saxophonist Michael Johnson, Kurt Maccum the trumpet player, and the legendary bass player Boby Raymond.
KREYOL ALTERNATIVE
Kreyol Alternative is a joint project that was put together to advance Haitian Music. We carefully selected musicians based on their performance and experience because our style requires a lot of musical mastery. The class has progressively imposed itself and has gained a reputation in the New York community.
FUNKY KONPA
Changing the traditional way of playing Compas Direct has always been the goal of Clinton Benoit. The Funky Konpa project possesses a hefty spirit that can bring any audience to their feet. It moves away from hardcore Compas Direct to embrace a less heavy bass style as moody and percussive.
