We are a troupe of musicians stemming from Nepal, Czech Republic, Germany, USA and The Netherlands. Our Gypsy representative leads us in song, and our steady German drives the beat. We are physical evidence that something beautiful comes from every nation.

I was born in the small city of Goma on the east side of Zaire in Africa. I spent 10 years of my childhood moving back to back between various neighbors states and cities. I guess you can call me a nomad or simply a wonder. In the year 1986 when I came into this world, everything seemed like paradise to me. It was Zaire at its greatest. People were full of joy and many amazing things were happening. At the time, I was only a child who had a dream of becoming one of the greatest musicians. I’m currently working on a few projects. I have been in a couple of talent shows and have attended a few American live shows just to be familiar on how things work. I have met Petey Pablo, Busta Rhymes, Dolla Sign, G Easy and the entire Marley family, which was an amazing experience. I am a refugee that has managed to get his legal papers so I don't have any trouble traveling when I start opening up for anyone willing to take me under their wings. I just want to further my knowledge in music. My music would reflect on the experiences that occurred to me while growing up as well as my interest in various music around the world. Music has been my passion since I was young. I didn't take my music seriously at first because I knew it required an education along with it. Throughout the years, I’ve learned a variety of skills, that qualify me as an artist. I’m interested in working with anyone that can help me expend my wildest dreams. I’ve always been fascinated in the creation of music and how it made people feel. I thought to myself, if I need a new skill, I should find a way to get myself into music no matter what genre it is. Now, I’m looking for a new challenge. I believe my involvement in music will not only teach me new skills, but benefit anyone who is involved. Keep in tune for more my beautiful people. 

Strong in the rain.
