Son del Sur

About

Son del Sur is a Los Angeles-based Latin music ensemble featuring Afro-Cuban percussion, violin, flute, trumpet, guitar and bass. We play traditional Cuban son, charanga, cha cha, cumbia, Latin jazz and other musical styles commonly known as salsa. We blend the traditional with the new to evoke a familiar yet innovative sound.

The group has entertained thousands of audiences in their 10 years of performance experience. They are skilled at engaging an audience with song and dance in a multitude of settings including city concerts, restaurants, night clubs or intimate engagements such as weddings, galas, or fundraisers.

Son del Sur was recently featured at Descarga; a Telemundo-Mun2 Summer Concert production at the Universal CityWalk. In addition, they appeared in the Muy Buenos Dias morning show that is televised to a national audience where they performed original music from their first CD release Musica Para Resonar el Alma and their upcoming 2nd CD production.

Son del Sur is ready to perform and entertain! !Puro Ache!
