Secret Planet // Rasin Okan (Haitian Roots Band) OCT 4 @ Manny's

RASIN OKAN, Brooklyn-based Haitian Roots Band

Born of Haiti's mizik rasin movement, Rasin Okan is the only Brooklyn-based rasin sèch band. In the spirit of rasin sèch (directly translated to dry roots), Rasin Okan emphasizes the sounds and songs of traditional Haitian Vodou ceremonial music without much electric accompaniment. Led and co-founded by Jean E. Montina, Sanba Mayombe, the group writes original songs and evocative folk music to insight the revolutionary spirit of Haiti's freedom fighters, to a pulsating rhythm.
