**Aron & The Jeri Jeri Band** is a global collaboration led by New Zealand pianist and producer **Aron Ottignon**, built in deep partnership with master percussionist **Bakane Seck** and the **Jeri Jeri Band** of Senegal.

The project fuses **traditional mbalax rhythms**, **electronic production**, and **spiritual chant** with cross-continental remix culture — inviting artists from **Berlin to Nairobi** to reshape the sound through live performance, improvisation, and dub.

---

> “A new school of mbalax-fusion rooted in the old ways, guided by drums, spirit, and collaboration.”
