CABOCUBAJAZZ
‘One of the most ingenious musical
concepts ever conceived’
(Kabir Sehgal, GRAMMY winning producer, author)
In an inimitable way, the ensemble blends the melancholy of the Cape Verdean Islands with a generous portion of sweeping Cuban rumba, salsa and adventurous jazz. The result: 100% CaboCubaJazz. Both the listener and the dancer are taken on a journey where desire, passion, subtlety and musical fire alternate.
NILS FISCHER & TIMBAZO
Timbazo is a dazzling Latin band that guarantees an exuberant dance party. The group unites the intensity of Cuban timba with jazz and ‘salsa dura’. Musicians originate from Colombia, Cuba, The Netherlands, Germany, US, Puerto Rico and Venezuela. Top line-up featuring three amazing salsa singers.
​
‘Undoubtedly the most varied and best Latin dance album at this moment’
(Oor magazine)
‘Horns blaring, percussion faster than the speed of light and singers just spitting fire!’ (Salsapower)
