“A Ripple Effect is a term used to describe a reaction caused from an initial effect, followed by a continuous outward motion.”
Simply put, R1pple 3ffect Band is Mervin Budram – MD’s band—the musicians and singers who tour with him and make the songs come alive on stage. These talented ladies and gents have been with him pretty much since the re-launch of his music ministry.
