"Blan Sanba"
Blan Sanba, Ron's radio name that kind of stuck to him from the Creole radio program "Chimen Memwa" he participated in with Foundation N a Sonje in 2003-04.
Like all the musicians in 2 Rasin, Ron has been playing guitar all his life, but it's the first time actually playing in a group!
Ron plays with fingerpicks and pulls out great lines to Mona's music inspired by the music and the energy of the music.
Ron's principal work is writing a book about his spiritual journey that incorporates his experiences in Haiti since he and his wife and 3 daughters came to Haiti in 1985. He also works hard to produce a vegetable gardens in the mountain home/compound where he and his wife along with the Nicolas family reside.

"Welele"
"Tant Ka" a nickname her community gave her and which she used
for the radio program "Chimen Memwa".
Another lifer, playing the violin and singing since childhood, this is a childhood dream of Carla's, to sing and play in a band. It is also a very new thing, to play without written music in front of her, a little daunting, considering everyone else is very good at that!
