Montuno West @ The Yardbird Suite<\/a><\/strong>
Friday, November 29, 2024
Doors open at 7:00 PM
Show starts at 8:00 PM<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Montuno West featuring Israel \u201cToto\u201d Berriel releases their new Bent River Records album, Ra\u00edces<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Montuno West boasts an exciting and infectious sound strongly influenced by jazz, Afro-Cuban folklore and other Latin styles. A true blend of tradition and modern approaches keeps the band\u2019s sound fresh, evocative, and, most importantly, uplifting. In 2019, the group won the Calgary Music Award for World Recording of the Year. It was also nominated for a Western Canadian Music Award in the World category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Montuno West is excited to be joined by special guest Israel \u201cToto\u201d Berriel (Vancouver\/Cuba). Berriel is a traditional Afro-Cuban percussionist, vocalist, and educator. He played with the world\u2019s best-known Rumba group, Los Mu\u00f1equitos de Matanzas, for twelve years, where he mastered the Afro-Cuban repertoire. Toto is an exceptional performer and a naturally gifted vocalist with a distinctive sound. Although deeply rooted in Afro-Cuban traditions, he is also comfortable with jazz, soul, and funk. Originally from Matanzas, Cuba, Toto has toured worldwide and has made Canada his home since 2001.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
