With a zest from the West African earth, spinning on traditional Afro-folk rhythms and infusing pieces of rock, funk and jazz into it, Elikeh has strived to be an amazing West African-American band in the heart of Washington DC.

The origin of the name “Elikeh” can be traced to Africa where the word implies “something that is rooted, in the soil or in tradition”.  And in the matter of Elikeh – the name signifies its connection to the sound rooted in the Togolese traditional music.   It owes its  background in Togo, a country in Africa.

Massama Dogo is the lead vocalist and guitarist of Elikeh accompanied by eight other musicians playing bass, drums, saxophones, piano and percussions. Dogo, born and brought up in Togo, wanted to start a band that played a music rooted in Africa, and  blended sounds of Reggae and roots. So he gave an advertisement in the newspaper and the people who turned up to join the band were experienced musicians and they knew what  kind of sound the band wanted.
