Artist / Group Bio: Formed in 1995 , Los Mas Valientes brings together some of today’s finest Latin musicians. Collectively, the band’s resume reads like a who’s-who of New York’s jazz and Latin music scene. Its members have played with Chico O’Farrill, Louis Bauzó, Charlie Persip, Max Roach, Orlando Marín, The Nelson Riddle Orchestra, the Kit McClure Band, Jimmy Bosch, Juan Carlos Formell...and the list goes on. Los Mas Valientes plays original Latin jazz compositions, innovative arrangements of Latin jazz standards, and classic Latin dance music. Their creative originals draw on the traditions of Cuba, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, Colombia, Brazil, Haiti and Jamaica, giving them a unique and highly-danceable pan-Latino and pan-Caribbean sound.
