Primo Cubano plays traditional Son Cuban dance music dating back to the turn of the 20th Century. Son is the most popular style to come out of Cuba and is the primary contributor to the blend of Latin styles today known as Salsa. It originated as music of the country people and eventually migrated to Havana, where it was urbanized and began to draw a wider audience. Guitarist Paul D'Alessio came into contact with this music on a trip to Cuba in 2004 and soon began learning to play Son music on a guitar-like instrument native to Cuba called the tres and subsequently formed Primo Cubano, "Cuban Cousin." The Primo Cubano band includes Marc Chillemi on trumpet, Lenny Hatch on congas, Eric Winter sings and plays maracas, and Duane Edwards on the bass fiddle. Find out more at Primo Cubano.
