The band is made of musicians from Togo, Senegal, Brazil, Uruguay and the US and they are based in Minneapolis, MN.

With influences ranging from Fela Anikulapo Kuti to Youssou N'dour and Sting, the flavor of this music is enhanced by the Brazilian ingredients of Eliezer Freitas Santos-whom Yawo Attivor and Matt Hupton met after they moved to Minneapolis-, the mbalax of Ghana M'baye and the jazzy tones of Stephen Kung. As some in the twin cities are already saying, this is world music with an Afro-Brazilian attitude.
