Moonlight Benjamin’s third album Wayo is a spellbinding ‘cry of pain’ which showcases her thundering vocals and lyrical themes on faith, energy and our connection to the source. These eleven tracks from Haiti’s Vodou priestess delve deep, immersing her philosophical messages in heavy blues rapture, killer riffs and hand-clapping, foot-stomping percussion with influences as far reaching as Dr John, Malian singer Oumou Sangare and Alabama ShakesMaking her mark in 2018 with her exhilarating debut album, Siltane, followed in 2020 by the explosive Simido, Moonlight Benjamin returns with Wayo, a hard-hitting, blues-infused, whirlwind of a record from the ‘Vodou Priestess of Blues-Rock’. Working alongside long-time collaborator Matthis Pascaud, Wayo marries Moonlight’s electrifying vocals with Pascaud’s heavily saturated guitar riffs, this time enlisting the help of producer and percussionist, Raphaël Chassin (known for his work with the likes of Joon Moon, Hugh Coltman, Vanessa Paradis and Salif Keita), adding a fresh twist to the album’s rhythmic presence.
