 Lakou Mizik      Renmen (feat. Preservation Hall Jazz Band)         HaitiaNola

“Lakou Mizik is a powerhouse collective of Haitian roots music with a soulful energy and a mix of styles that feels mystical and familiar at the same time. In the wake of Haiti’s devastating earthquake the band came together to show the world that their country was much more than the sum of headlines that were being shot around the globe.”
