The technical requirements of our band depend on the number of musicians needed for the event. Below, we outline the aspects that may vary:
Number of musicians: From a small group to a full band, we can adjust to the specific needs of the event.
Sound system: The sound system should be suitable for the size of the band and the venue. We recommend a professional sound system that can properly cover the area and ensure optimal audio quality.
Instruments: The instruments we use include percussion (congas, timbales, bongos), brass (trumpet, trombone), keyboards, guitars, bass, and more. The number of instruments will vary depending on the number of musicians required.
Space: Depending on the size of the band, we will need enough space to set up our equipment and instruments, as well as an area for all musicians to move and play comfortably.
We are happy to coordinate the technical details in advance to ensure everything runs smoothly on the day of the event.

Set list
My setlist varies depending on the type of event. Generally, it consists of upbeat Latin music, including Salsa, Merengue, Bachata, Cuban music, and Latin Jazz standards.
Influences and inspiration
I have been influenced by Cuban music my entire life. I was born in Cuba and I love its music. Buena Vista Social Club, Chucho Valdés, Los Van Van, and many others have shaped my musical journey. However, I also have strong influences from all Latin music in general, including Merengue, Bachata, Tangos, and Salsa. Additionally, I am influenced by Blues, Jazz, and Flamenco.
