Sarabanda

Sarabanda are sure to fill the dance floor with their glorious mix of Cuban rhythms. Sliding effortlessly between classic Cuban cha cha cha, mambo and son to the latest hot timba, salsa and Latin jazz, this is Cuban music at its very finest.
Sara McGuinness (bandleader) was awarded UK Lukas Awards Latin Musician of the Year 2018.
Sarabanda’s obvious love of the music they play is evident in the passionate and exuberant arrangements of Cuban songs both classic and modern. The fabulous singers Yuri Moreno, hailing from Santiago – the heartland of Cuban son, and Alfonso Mono de Jesus from Colombia are much in demand for their fantastic vocal talents. Combine this with the blistering keyboards of Sara McGuinness, solid bass grooves from Jimmy Martinez and storming trombone lines from maestro Landy Diaz supported by a steaming percussion section and you can’t go wrong.
