Aron & The Jeri Jeri Band

Aron & The Jeri Jeri Band (A&TJJB) are a melting pot of cross cultural sounds, at the core of which is Mbalax, with a seasoning of Afrobeat, Afrofunk and Jazz. The brainchild of pianist, composer and producer Aron Ottignon and sabar percussionist Bakane Seck.

Aron Ottignon is no stranger to the music scene, the New Zealand born pianist caught the attention of Blue Note and Universal Music record labels and in early 2000’s he released a string of jazz albums to critical acclaim, as a composer he collaborated with Stromae on the global chart topper “Papaoutai”, he has toured the world with Woodkid and collaborated with many other musicians including Electric Wire Hustle, Louane, Broken Back, Empire Of the Sun, Myele Manzanza.
Senegalese Griot, Bakane Seck has been playing music since before he was born, his mastery of the Sabar (percussion instrument) has seen him tour the world with icons of the African music industry Youssou N’Dour and Baaba Maal. He is the founder and frontman of The Jeri Jeri Band. Seck met Ottignon in Berlin in 2019, introduced by a traditional sabar dance teacher. Ottignon began working on two demos for an international album, Mama Djuma and Teddoungal, fusing traditional
Senegalese sounds with modern production techniques. They both knew they had found the perfect match and that this was just the beginning of their musical journey together.
