MIAMI - Floridant -- Legendary Haitian percussionist Jean Rodrigue Gauthier, widely known as Ti Crane, makes a powerful return to the music scene with the release of two dynamic new singles: the high-energy dance track "Defoule" (Let Loose) and the heartfelt love ballad "Mayeva." These exciting releases highlight Ti Crane's enduring passion for Konpa Direk and his signature ability to energize dance floors across generations.
"Defoule" is performed by Stevenson Nelson, while "Mayeva" features the voice and guitar work of the acclaimed Ralph Condé. Both songs were written by Ti Crane, with arrangements and keyboard contributions by Pierre Alcide (Massgroove Touche Légende), adding depth and sophistication to the tracks.
After a long hiatus, Ti Crane returns to what he has always done best creating vibrant, soul-stirring music. With "Defoule" and "Mayeva," he offers a celebration of Haitian culture, rich with traditional instrumentation like drums, congas, guitar, keyboard, and cowbell. These tracks showcase his timeless ability to create music that resonates across generations, inviting listeners to dance, feel, and reconnect.

Ti Crane's musical journey began in 1969 with the band Jouvince, where his talent as a percussionist first drew attention. He later joined the pioneering mini-jazz band Shleu Shleu, known for blending Haitian rhythms with modern sounds. In the mid-1970s, he co-founded the internationally acclaimed group Skah Shah, where his rhythmic brilliance became central to the band's success and helped push Konpa to new global heights.
Over the years, Ti Crane has continued to evolve artistically, collaborating with groups like Crystal and I-Konya, and releasing his solo album Coq La Chante in 1988. His music has consistently reflected a bold fusion of tradition and innovation, earning him a lasting place as one of Konpa's most influential figures.
Looking ahead, Ti Crane is preparing a full-length album set for release in 2025. This upcoming project will blend the timeless sound of classic Konpa with contemporary influences, offering something fresh for long-time fans and new listeners alike.
