Moonlight Benjamin - Club Fox, Redwood City, CA on September 11

worldclassmusic.live presents: 

MOONLIGHT BENJAMIN!

A California debut for the incantatory, voodoo-infused garage blues of MOONLIGHT BENJAMIN - a real Haitian priestess.  

doors 7PM / showtime 8PM

Moonlight Benjamin powerful, original music draws from Caribbean Vodou melodies and 70s blues rock inspired by Dr John, Alabama Shakes and The Black Keys.  The Guardian calls her The Caribbean Patti Smith!

Moonlight Benjamin is a Haitian-born singer/songwriter/bandleader, who grew up in a protestant orphanage, and is now based in France. As a teenager she started to sing at church.  Her music is unique in the Haitian diaspora. She fuses the gut-level passion of Haitian roots music with the blare and bravado of electric guitar rock. In person, she is elegant, soft-spoken and articulate. On stage, she is like a person possessed, raw and emotive - singing mostly in Creole with a burly voice that erupts from somewhere deep within. Her band rocks hard throughout.

Moonlight's powerful and rebellious voice, meets the tension of saturated guitars to create an intoxicating voodoo trance in a very new and explosive style.
