The feminist Voodoo musical revolution is underway, and it's called les Nana Benz du Togo. “Who does not respect nature, does not respect women”. Led by three singers, Togolese priestesses, this collective aims to disrupt the patriarchal society by unveiling a rooted DIY music, where traditions and urban rhythms transport the listener into a futuristic dimension.

NBT draws inspiration from the journey of strong women from the 1950s, the business ladies of fabrics like 'pagne' and 'wax' that have boosted Togo's history. As worthy heirs to their courage and Pan-Africanism, Lady Apoc, Izea Ledu, and Parus Kekeli take up the torch, calling for the emancipation of African women within a powerful feminist digital voodoo project.

Guided by the commandments of the supreme deity, Mother Nature, the Nana Benz of Togo appropriate Voodoo harmonies in a militant soul supported by complex rhythms produced from instruments created from recycled materials. The 100% Do It Yourself rhythmic section comprises Toto Tchilatchi's recycled drums and Kasanku's PVC tube bass. Together, they create a groove that draws from the ancestral sounds of Dahomey and the electronic atmospheres found in the streets of Lomé. NBT's first album, recorded in the capital under the guidance of Peter Solo (leader of Vaudou Game), reconciles eras and generations, bringing an unprecedented fusion to African continent's music.
