This 36 year old East Coast ensemble “has joined the pantheon of great latin jazz groups” says the 52nd Street Review. Veteran members have performed, recorded and toured extensively with jazz and Latin greats of the past and future: Tito Puente, Lionel Hampton, Monguito Santamaria, Manny Oquendo to name a few. 

This legendary eight-piece ensemble features members that live and perform in Washington DC, Baltimore and New York. They have performed all over the US – in the west including a week’s stint at the JAZZ BAKERY in LA, and Midwest, and continue to frequent jazz and dance clubs around the eastern seaboard including the BLUE NOTE in Manhattan and BIRDLAND ‘the jazz corner of the world’. Chosen as the best Latin Music Group by the Washington Area Music Association (WAMA) 15 times. They have appeared at major jazz festivals including the San Jose AAT Jazz Fest in California and Lake George Jazz weekend in upstate New York, Telluride Jazz Festival in Colorado and internationally at The Ottawa International Jazz Festival in Canada.
