Cuban Social Club - Latin, Afro
CUBAN SOCIAL CLUB is a Latin and Afro-jazz ensemble led by Grammy-nominated musician Richard Ortega López. Drawing on the traditions of Son and Guaracha, the group incorporates López’s background at Havana's Escuela Nacional de Arte. The ensemble performs a repertoire of original compositions alongside the traditional Latin canon, delivering arrangements built heavily on afro-jazz and funk influences. CUBAN SOCIAL CLUB executes their music with technical precision, utilising a dense rhythmic section and full brass to produce an authentic big band sound.
Supplied for corporate events, festivals, weddings, and concerts, CUBAN SOCIAL CLUB performs in both Spanish and English. The octet features extensive instrumentation including vocals, congas, timbales, trombone, bass, piano, and trumpet. The band provides their own professional instruments, requiring only a suitable PA system from the client. Agency representatives facilitate all bookings, making it simple to engage this large-scale ensemble for diverse function types.
