This Oakland-based band serves up original compositions as well as classics from the Cuban jazz and New York salsa scenes. Sons, guajiras, cha-chas and salsas will get you wiggling and make you want to dance. The band (violin, horns, piano, guitar, bass, and percussion) is hot and the lead singer is a warm, sexy flirt. Good stuff. 1. Hot, hip Afro-Cuban dance framed in a sharp arrangement. *2. Stylish, midtempo, jazzy opening into upbeat salsa groove. *3. Sweet mid/upbeat son wiggle. So good. *4. Nicely swaying, midtempo cha-cha jam. Very cool. *5. Upbeat salsa w/a catchy energy. *6. Relaxed midtempo Latin jazz that showcases the band. 7. Mid/upbeat salsa w/nice work from all. Wanna dance? 8. Slow, romantic then a midtempo cha-cha. Romantic & lush. 9. Slow intro, then upeat. Nicely arranged jazz dance w/class. 10. Downtempo, relaxed, full of longing and romance. | ||
