Fôô Fanick and One Roots

About Me



FÔÔ FANICK started as a drummer in his home country Benin (Westafrica), where he played with artists such as Stan Tohon, African Heritage or Alpha Blondy with whom he toured the world as a member of the famous Solar System.
Meeting and playing with people such as The Wailers, Inner Circle, Ras Michael or Culture, Fôô Fanick created his own style, made of roots reggae and west african drum rythms. He settled down in Germany in the late 90's to start his solo project.
One Roots is the Band, young guys from all over the place (F, D, US,UK, Israël, Cuba...) who all went to the same school: Learn the stuff, play it steady, then go crazy...Check out the Fôô Fanick & One Roots (Big Band version!) live video from Potsdam Africa Festival 2005:
