One of the main representatives of Caribbean rhythms will be present at the Music Box in San Diego (1337 India Street). With a unique fusion between conga, salsa, and jazz that’ll make you vibrate to the beat of Trane’s Delight, the last of his 27 albums.
Poncho Sánchez, a precursor of Latin jazz in the United States, is the youngest of 11 siblings in a family with Mexican roots that instilled in him his interest in Cuban music from a very young age.
