ABOUT

I am primarily into Latin-Jazz, mostly Afro Cuban and Brazilian with heavy focus on percussion since I am a percussionist (Congas, Bongos, Timbales). I am also an arranger and can create horn arrangements for Salsa, Latin Jazz, Funk, R&B, Pop and original music. I am currently in the process of producing my first CD but I am also looking to either find or form a Latin Jazz small band to play local gigs in Connecticut and possibly in New York City.
