Nana Benz du Togo (Togo)

Nana Benz du Togo – “Voodoo tradition meets soul—built for the dance floor!” The band is named after the group of women who imported Mercedes Benz cars to Togo. This year, they performed at major festivals such as Down the Rabbit Hole, Roskilde, and North Sea Jazz. The ensemble consists of five members whose interplay spans a wide range of dynamics, from powerful to more subtle moments. Nana Benz du Togo create an organic sound shaped by deep sub-bass and layered polyrhythms, providing the foundation for the voices of three electrifying electro-soul preachers. With a minimal setup — primarily vocals and a vintage Korg keyboard — the group produces a direct yet richly textured sound. Their live shows are nothing short of spiritual — a blend of ancestral energy and modern fire that has left thousands in a trance across European stages.
