Boukman Eksperyans
will be touring Europe in late May. Theodore Beaubrun, the lead singer of the band,
has
been fighting for many years to seek a better life for Haiti
without corruption and crime. Theodore “Lolo” Beaubrun
is still today an important figure for many Haitians.
Boukman Eksperyans popularized Haitian Mizik Rasin since
the early 90s. German label Tropical Music has
released the latest studio recording of the band called Revolisyon, which
