The only Latin band from Kolkata

The only Latin band from Kolkata

orientexpress

We are a Latin, Latin Jazz band. The music we play ranges from original compositions to Latin and Jazz standards, contemporary jazz to jazz rock. From Coltrane to Weather Report, from Autumn Leaves to Santana, we love playing it all. The idiom is Latin, but the canvas is wide open. We have our own sound, and we are the only ones in the country doing what we are doing. We are the only authentic Latin band with Congas bongos, Timbales Guido Clave and the whole battery of Latin Percussions. We've been playing together for 2 and a half years and wherever we've played, the reaction has been, "We've never heard anything like this before!"
