New York–based Cameroonian vocal virtuoso Gino Sitson comes from a long line of musicians known as Ntontas (“players of horns”).

Early in his life Sitson was introduced to blues, jazz, and African traditional music and developed a unique style, incorporating African polyphonic techniques into the jazz vocal tradition.

Sitson explores the use of both his voice and body, combining vocal acrobatics with amazing body percussion.
