Reviewed 2008-05-24
Sweet Latin jazz from a Havana-born, Toronto-based guitarist/singer/ composer. The band does well by the tight arrangements and carries it off with style, restraint, and class. Nothing earth-shattering, but all quite enjoyable.

1. Relaxed mid instrumental sway. Bright guitar, warm perc/piano.
*2. Warm, sweet samba w/playful la-la-lyrics & a cute tune.
3. Nicely shaking conga jazz. Mid/up and subtly delicious.
*4. Midtempo Cuban son jazz w/a lazy air.
5. A Latin romance classic w/passionate vocals & a lazy cha-cha jazz.
*6. Mid/up blend w/some good vocals & a lush, rich romanticism.
*7. Driving Afro-Cuban rumba jazz w/a stylish flair.
8. Slow, delicately powerful ballad w/a gentle touch from all.
9. Starts slow, picks up almost operatic, soaring vocals & emotion.
