Ibeyi | ASH | CD

Ibeyi is a French and Cuban musical duo made up of fraternal twin sisters Lisa-Kaindé and Naomi Diaz, formed in 2013. The twins' father was the Cuban percussionist Miguel Angá Díaz, and their mother and manager is the French Venezuelan vocalist Maya Dagnino. Their sound combines Yoruban music with elements of jazz, pop, soul, gospel and hip hop, and their lyrics are sung in several languages including French, Spanish, Yoruban and English. Lisa-Kaindé is the lead vocalist and pianist, while Naomi is the percussionist, playing cajón and batá.

Ash is the second album by Ibeyi, released in 2017 on XL Recordings as a single CD. Richard Russell produced the album, and the track Transmission/Michaelion features Meshell Ndegeocello.
