Tito Gonzalez y Su Son de Cuba: Una Noche Cubana
July 16, 2016 @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm
$15 – $20
Tito y Su Son de Cuba takes you back to old Havana, interpreting and redefining classic Cuban son at its best. With his mastery of the tres guitar, Tito Gonzalez combines the traditional music of Cuba including chachacha, son montuno, guaracha, bolero and danzon.
Featuring:
Tito Gonzalez – guitar, tres, lead vocals
David Frazier – congo
Sandy Poindexter – violin
Rubin Hurtado – piano
Antonio Garcia – bass
Singer/composer Tito Gonzalez is a master showman with a voice that has been compared to that of classic son singer Daniel Santos. Gonzalez delivers songs that are deceptively simple – between their fluid melodies and retrograde rhythms, they evoke a focus and introspection that Tito attributes, in part, to his life in America. Along with son, his music demonstrates a broad range of Cuban genres such as rumba, guaracha and the most romantic boleros. His latest album, La Vida Te Da Sorpresas, features a contemporary take on classic Cuban son backed by extraordinary talent in his band.
Admission: $15-20. Doors at 7:00pm. Show at 7:30pm. All ages welcome.
