Roger Damawuzan

Crate diggers around the world have flipped through record stores for years searching for Roger Damawuzan’s first seven-inch vinyl, ‘Wait For Me’ - a holy grail for collectors. The hit made him a legend of Togolese music forever; but his story goes far deeper than the one song. Crucial in introducing Gazo, Akpesse, and Kamou rhythms to modern day soul music, Roger Damawuzan is a performer with an energy unlike any other. Be it with The Rickers Orchestra or leading The Melo-Togo Orchestra, he set the stage on fire. ‘SEDA’ is his comeback record and shows that, sixty years after debuting, his flame shines much brighter than most.
