Couleur Cave

About Couleur Cave
Alan Cavé, star lead singer of the group ZIN for the past 20 years joined forces with his father, writer/actor/director/narrator/poet Syto Cavé to present something unexpected and fresh.

Syto, a beacon of light, an ambassador for Haitian culture in the world, has been performing his art for over 30 years.

When the father and son duo decided to start working together, they realized that the music had to be of the highest caliber.

So, they called on Makarios Césaire as Musical Director.

Composer, Arranger, and Producer, Makarios is also one of Haiti's most talented guitar player.

He is truly a master of the instrument.

Though humble, Makarios is a disciplined musician and a stern leader.

Some musicians are good because they practice their craft, some are good because they were born with innate talent.

Ado Coker is graced with both innate talent and a propensity to practice.

It is no wonder that she is one of Makarios' favorite piano and keyboard players.

It is also no mystery why she promptly accepted to join Couleur Cavé.

She loves working with Makarios and she is a big fan of Alan. There are drummers and then there are DRUMMERS.

Emmanuel (Manny) Laine is the drummers' drummer.

Disciplined and talented, Manny is a graduate of the Berklee School of Music and the man who keeps the tempo for Couleur Cavé.

Though young, he has the musical maturity of a man twice his age. Both Makarios and Alan recognized early on that synergy is very important in the performance of music.

Carrie (Youyou) Legagneur in addition to being an enormously talented and yet underrated Bass Player, is one of the most jovial and relaxed individual you'll ever meet. Youyou has been the Bass Player for ZIN for almost a decade, he is also the Groove Master for Couleur Cavé.

The man simply swings.

Rounding the allstar Quintet is Robinson Jn-Baptiste, young and talented drummer for the Konpa Super Group Tabou Combo.

He serves as Percussionist for Couleur Cavé, a position that he fills with skills and controlled energy.
