As the President of Kompa took a leave of absence, his son Sandro Martelly, took over as T-micky.

He just released his first music album. Like father like son, the band is called T-Micky to take after the band of his father Sweet Micky.

Even as a young boy, Sandro Martelly is not new to the music world. Since Sandro Martelly has been playng music for a long time, it seems like is the natural replacement for his father in the new President of Kompa.

Here is a picture of three members of the group. We are doing a servey of the group Harmonik to see how the audience views them. Do yu think the group has good potential in the Haitian music industry? Another question that is also important for any Haitian musical band. Do you think the group Harmonik will remain together for a long time?

There is always a good reason for any one to be pessimistic about any Haitian Kompa band. Except for a few band such as Septentrional and tropicana that somehow have been able to keep themselves glued together for a long time, most band do not take that route.

Hopefully the group harmonik will prove us wrong
