Digicel Forms Strategic Partnerships with Prominent Haitian Music Groups Harmonik and RAM

Digicel, a key player in telecommunications, has officially announced new partnerships with two leading Haitian music groups, Harmonik and RAM. This initiative underscores Digicel’s commitment to supporting both the burgeoning Compas scene and the esteemed roots music tradition in Haiti.

Harmonik, celebrated for its popularity among the new generation of Compas musicians, is marking its second anniversary with ambitious projects that promise to invigorate the Haitian music industry. Known for its versatile and skilled musicians, Harmonik has already made a significant impact with its debut album “Jere’m” and enjoys widespread acclaim not only in Haiti but also in North America and the Caribbean.

On the other hand, RAM, established in the early 1990s, has been a revolutionary force in Haitian roots music. The group is famed for its unique blend of traditional Vodou rhythms with rock and roots elements, creating a distinctively rich musical experience. RAM is a staple at the Hotel Oloffson in Port-au-Prince, where their vibrant Thursday night performances have become legendary. Additionally, the group has been a consistent highlight of carnival parades for over a decade, with several albums to their credit and a loyal global fanbase.

These partnerships add to Digicel’s growing roster of supported artists and groups, which includes notable names like Djakout Mizik, Krezi, Nu Look, CARIMI, and RockFam, as well as recently signed musicians Mikaben and Sébastien Pierre. Digicel’s involvement is a testament to its dedication to the cultural and artistic growth of Haiti, aiming to propel the local music scene to new heights.
