Seattle Latin Band 2
Since 1999, this Seattle Latin Band has challenged and redefined the characteristic sound of Northwest Salsa scene. Never afraid to incorporate new ideas, or to drop others that have been exploited. Their eclectic style is an embodiment of the richness and diversity of Latin America. Deeply rooted in the latest music movements developing in Cuba and Puerto Rico, the band's performances are a blend of great salsa classics and contemporary tunes. At each performance, audiences are seduced by the energetic atmosphere of Rumba and Nueva Salsa.
Seattle Latin Band success
Now, after six years of hard work and continuous learning, this Seattle Latin Band has placed themselves at the top of the Northwest Salsa scene. They have broken attendance records of virtually every salsa club in the Northwest of the USA, Southwest of Canada and Alaska. The show of this Latin Band is considered to be one of the most entertaining and fun in the Northwest for salsa dancers as well as for those who just love the music. Testament to this, they were selected to play at the 2001 Major League All-Star Game to a crowd of more than 55,000 people at Safeco Field in Seattle. In addition, they have opened for some of the biggest names in Latin music including Grupo Niche de Colombia and El Gran Combo de Puerto Rico.
Seattle Latin Band CD
This Seattle Latin Band first CD was officially released on April 23, 2004. Descarga from New York describes the CD as “Killer dance club Salsa... highly combustible, get-on-the-dance floor tracks with zero filler material. DJ alert and highly recommended”. The CD has now gotten reviews from all over the world and it is being sold at the most important Latin music stores in England, Holland, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, France, Belgium, Japan, Canada, Argentina, Chile and Peru.
Their youth, energy and intense passion for music are the defining element that complements the quality of their sound. This makes this Seattle Latin Band a band with tremendous potential and a promising future.
Today [it] is a tight unit of expert musicians from North and South America, laying down infectious Latin rhythms and gathering devotees around the Northwest.
