About Us
T-Vice is a popular Haitian Kompa music band that formed in 1991. They are currently based in Miami, Florida. History The musical group was formed in 1991 by brothers Roberto and Reynaldo Martino, sons of renowned Haitian guitarist Robert Martino of the classic Top Vice band, T-Vice’s predecessor. Longtime friends James Cardozo and Gerald Kebreau were soon added thus completing the quartet as they were originally known as and still known today. Roberto and Reynaldo had thought of the idea of creating their own group through the musical influence and inspiration they received from Top Vice in which their father was the lead guitarist. Musical Style T-Vice is known for their catchy lyrics and energetic vibe, as well as the modern party scene they bring into the genre of Kompa. Musical influences from reggae, merengue, flamenco and modern synthesizing from rock ’n’ roll have made the group one of the most innovation.Roberto Martino (born Jun 13, 1975) - Lead singer and guitarist/composer Reynaldo Martino (born May 11, 1978) - Singer, Composer and Maestro. Gerald Kebreau (born Jun 18, 1971) - Bass guitarist James Cardozo (born Jan 7, 1973) - Singer/vocals, Keytar Oliver Duret (born August 4, 1981)- co - singer Rivenson Louissaint - (born June 6, 1984)- Drummer Eddy Junior Viau - (born 5, 1984)- Percussionist Jessie Al-Khal (born June 10)- Manager T-Vice is well recognized for the fact that as a Haitian musical group they have broken the typical local performance scene common to other bands (performing solely in Haiti) and have traveled to many places throughout the Americas and Europe in order to perform. They are often considered musical rivals to another compas great Sweet Mickey. Many even consider T-Vice as being the new Tabou Combo as a result of their international touring that is unparalleled by their contemporaries. Excluding Haiti, T-Vice has performed in the neighboring Dominican Republic, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Aruba, Canada, France,Australia, and New Caledonia as well as various U.S cities such as Miami, Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Orlando, and Boston. They have achieved moderate international success and have recently been invited by officials to represent the Caribbean in an important event to be held in Australia to celebrate the diverse music of the world’s cultures. Manager Jessie Al-Khal has also managed to secure the band a much coveted prominent performance in the upcoming U.S. Presidents Ball to be held later this year.
