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.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"6588\" data-local-id=\"c215d17117e7\">The ensemble consists of five members who combine driving grooves, deep bass lines, and West African rhythms with soul, electronics, and powerful vocals. At its core are three charismatic singers whose energy and stage presence instantly captivate audiences. With a minimal setup centered on vocals and a vintage Korg keyboard, the band creates a direct yet richly textured sound.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"6970\" data-local-id=\"b28272563853\">Their live performances are celebratory and almost trance-like: a blend of ancestral energy and modern fire that has left thousands in a trance across European stages.<\/p>\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"7139\" data-local-id=\"62162f35311b\">\n<p data-renderer-start-pos=\"7141\" data-local-id=\"8f438f57cc32\"><a class=\"_2hGPVj98eZ _2i3C1kYbGa _2kH23qT6kp _1ubuxonXvL _34b3D2vc3e _1NDpvb6wH8 _2wtOC9vc3e _3e11vU6wH8 _0hSAgbHZdu _00uqCY98eZ _3xtjKN0Rl6 _0H9qDF6wH8 _24h04i2Njc _1mT5xdRAKS _0bjKvDcjp5 _0WKd3G4z3T _23rrnHo10F _1UtDYzM7Tp _32C2rk98eZ _0i9AWA0Rl6 _0mm6KQ6wH8 _10n1R5M7Tp _0DCa9DjOvk _3932vv0Rl6 _02cRtH6wH8 _1B4rbIo10F _0clgaMM7Tp _3WzCGijOvk _0NqVRt0Rl6 _3BKYwu6wH8 _3sFUREDdj4 _0CMRbkAwSC _2nTuUYWfPD _3ADzdEWfPD _1warJ9WfPD _4scvAwWyeI\" title=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/nanabenztogo\/\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/nanabenztogo\/\" data-renderer-mark=\"true\" data-is-router-link=\"false\" data-testid=\"link-with-safety\">Nana Benz du Togo (@nanabenztogo)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class=\"block block-teaser col-1 \" style=\"\">\n\t<lazy-component :fixed-min-height=\"400\">\n\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"container-fluid\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"row bottom-xs\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-xs-12 col-sm-10 col-md-8 col-sm-offset-1 col-md-offset-2\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"h4\">Belongs to<\/h2>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-xs-12 col-sm-10 col-md-8 col-sm-offset-1 col-md-offset-2 start-xs end-md margin-bottom-sixth\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"row\">\n\t\t\t\n<li class=\"col-xs-12 teaser-wrapper col-padding-remove\">\n\t<calendarteaser key=\"1716751723\" rawitem='{&quot;postId&quot;:171675,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Opening Mine.
