Additional Information
Their friendship began in Haiti, specifically in Pétion-Ville, 11 years ago. Today, they both live in Montreal and have decided to continue their artistic collaboration. Behind Kwaliti are Ronald Lebeau and Alain Jean Louis, as well as their behind-the-scenes producer, Fridody Jean, and together they created the album Caribbean Groove 7 Renaissance, a blend of Haitian sounds and Afropop with a Caribbean twist. The album was released on November 14th, but it became available on all platforms on November 18th, an important date commemorating the Battle of Vertières. The choice of December 5th for the concert at Balattou is also significant, as it’s another date marking the discovery of Haiti. Our journalist Sandra Gasana spoke with the duo for PAN M 360 a few days before their concert.
