Sarah Pacini highly recommends that you not miss out on this phenomenon. This group from the Democratic Republic of Congo marries magic rumba, reggae and rhythm & blues - a cocktail that provides for a thunderous crazy atmosphere at each of their concerts.Something that makes this band very special is the fact that all band members are disabled and they sing and party, sitting in their wheelchairs, to make their audience dance. The wheelchairs quickly become a minor detail once the audience gets sucked into a whirlwind of the heated and rhythmic atmosphere.
If you don’t get the chance to see them live, get a copy of the film "Staff Benda Bilili", directed in 2010 by Renaud Barret and Florent de la Tullaye, as soon as possible. A documentary that caused a stir at the Directors’ Fortnight of the 2010 Cannes Film Festival. If you want tospend some quality time with music, and receive a huge dose of energy, why not discover of Staff Benda Bilili!
