Zing Experience

About Me

The band Zing Experience fuzes rock, reggae and vodou/roots rhythms to create a soulful sound, with influences from artists as diverse as Jimi Hendrix, and Bob Marley, to Stevie Wonder, Prince and Lenny Kravitz.

Zing Experience made its New York debut at Sugar Bar, the legendary music venue of '70s icons Ashford and Simpson. The band packed the house and created an instant following of loyal supporters. That momentous night opened the door for Zing Experience to deliver its positive message to embrace one's roots and "live a better day," as reflected in one of the band's most popular songs, "Take Me Away".
Paul Beaubrun, the group's co-founder, lead singer/songwriter and guitarist, is said to embody the "Zing" spirit -- a captivating energy and ability to uplift people, to embrace one's past while looking forward to the future with hope and determination. Paul is the youngest son of Grammy nominated Lolo and Manze Beaubrun, lead singers and founders of Boukman Eksperyans, Haiti's most influential, popular and revolutionary band. Paul's musical vision was shaped by his parents, as he performed alongside them all over the world -- from the Caribbean, the U.S., Canada, and Europe. Paul's musical upbringing and passion for his roots fuels the core of the powerful and unique sound of Zing Experience.
Cynthia Casasola, co-founder, singer and dancer for Zing Experience, contributes her sweet, angelic voice, echoing and reinforcing the band's message of positivity and hope for the future. She offers the perfect complement to Paul's sound, creating unforgettable harmonies both vocally, and in their collaborative writing efforts.
"Zing" is defined as a spirit from the sea with African and native Indian roots. The feeling that Zing Experience generates has been described as one that inspires and transcends this world. Zing Experience leaves you with a desire for more -- not only for more music, but also for a better understanding of this world -- and the realization that the possibilities are limitless."TOUT MOUN SE MOUN"- KANAVAL 2009"DREAD MWEN DREAD""AYIBOBO" (Carnaval 2008)"REMEMBER"
