Vaudou Game
Formed in Lyon, France in 2013, Vaudou Game is an Afro-funk music collective founded by Togolese singer and guitarist Peter Solo. Influenced by the funk records his father played when he was young, Peter Solo envisioned a fusion of American rhythms from the 1960s and 1970s with the voodoo songs and rituals of his native country. In 2013, he released a solo album titled Analog Voodoo, which featured his first forays into hypnotic funk. Shortly after the album’s release, he formed Vaudou Game with local musicians from Lyon. In 2014, the collective released Apiafo, an album that also featured vocalist Roger Damawuzan, who channeled the excitement of James Brown into some of the recordings. In 2016, Vaudou Game continued their journey into hypnotic funk with the album Kidayou. While the group didn’t scale commercial heights, their grass roots following grew with each release including Otodi (2018) and Noussin (2021).
