Combining contemporary Nu Yorican sophistication with the classics of Latin jazz a la Tito Puente and Cal Tjader, It’s the sound of percussive rhythm-melodic energy! The band has come together from across the musical spectrum and literally from around the world of salsa, pop, soul and the jazz legacy.
