Dezil’ is a band from Seychelles, formed around 2003 by Martin Lebon and Juan Romain, who were teenagers at the time. Juan was part of the national junior football team, and Martin was a karate champion. They later grew to include Sandra Esparon (vocals) and Michael Savy. Their musical breakthrough came with the debut single “San ou (La Rivière)”, released on 27 June 2005. The song was recorded in Mahé, and its music video was filmed on Praslin Island, partly at the Hôtel L’Archipel, Anse Gouvernement. It became a summer hit, peaking at number 2 on the SNEP (French) chart, selling between approximately 460,000 and 550,000 copies, and was certified Diamond by SNEP. In 2006, Dezil’ released “Laisse tomber les filles (qui se maquillent)”, an adaptation of Musical Youth’s Pass the Dutchie. Their first full album, Welcome to the Paradise, was released in 2006. They later released Black Queen in December 2009, which included tracks such as “Danser Sur La Plage” and “Elle S’appelle Sandra”.
