ROBERTO FONSECA
Roberto Fonseca piano/keyboard/sampler, Jorge Chicoy gitaar, Yandy Martínez bas, Joel Hierrezuelo percussie, Ramsés Rodríguez drums
Keyboard player Roberto Fonseca gives way to the future of Afro-Cuban music. In his twenties he accompanied veterans of the successful Cuban orchestra Buena Vista Social Club, namely Ibrahim Ferrer and Rubén González. Back then his percussive piano playing was already admired by Herbie Hancock. Now he mixes timeless son rhythms with souljazz, funk and futuristic sampling. His new album was produced by Mikael ‘Count’ Eldridge (DJ Shadow, Radiohead, Rolling Stones). ‘One of the most dazzling pianists and accompanists in Cuba’ (The Guardian).
