Belony Beniste is Lakou Mizik’s accordion player – and plays a crucial role in tying the band’s sound to the country’s musical traditions. Hailing from the rural North West of the country, Beniste grew up with folk and Vodou music all around. A highly sought after musician in Port-au-Prince, he also plays with the country’s best-known twoubadou singer Ti Coca and comes with a deep wealth of knowledge of Haiti’s classic repertoire. Beniste represents a growing number of Haitian accordion players who are keeping the vintage twoubadou tradition alive in Haiti.
