our cds
Our debut self-titled CD (Laughing Buddha, 1999) received wide critical acclaim. Cadence Magazine called it, “a tightly knit band of Latin music professionals...plays the music of Latin America with dedication and a true understanding of its pulse.” JazzNow hailed it as, “a tight and engaging ensemble... not a weak spot on the album.” The celebrated Latin music historian and columnist, Max Salazar, listed it as one of the 10 best albums of 1999 (Latin Beat Magazine, December 1999). Our sophomore effort, Gira Caribeña Caribbean Journey, has received even greater praise; Latin Beat Magazine says,“The production swings, with commendable arrangements…” and Latin Style Magazine raves, “I wish this recording could go on and on, and you will too!” Our 2005 release, Titere Fué, topped Latin jazz charts all over the US, Canada, Puerto Rico and Europe in 2005 and 2006.
