Ghanaian international music star, activist, and 2016 Grammy Award nominee Rocky Dawuni has leveraged his popularity across the African continent to bring his unique Afro Roots sound to global audiences and champion social causes. Over the course of his career, and the release of six albums, his radiant grooves and dance-inducing anthems have consistently excited fans, including some of music’s biggest stars with whom he’s performed and collaborated: Stevie Wonder, Peter Gabriel, Janelle Monae, John Legend, and many others. Having appeared at some the biggest World and Reggae music events, his eloquence, passion, and infectious blend of celebrity and humanitarianism (UN Foundation, ONE.org, Product (RED) etc.) have turned him into an ambassador for various global causes.

Influenced by the soulful beats of Afrobeat legend Fela Kuti, the positive messages and deep grooves of Bob Marley and the infectious, sing-along anthems of Michael Franti, K’naan and Matisyahu, Rocky Dawuni’s songs straddle the musical boundaries between Africa, the Caribbean and the US to create a universally appealing sound that unites generations and cultures.
