UK-based Venezuelan pianist Edgar Macias is a sought-after pianist in a variety of musical styles, from jazz to salsa. His vast and impressive cv includes work with the likes of Wynton Marsalis, David Murray, Scott Hamilton and Bobby Wellins and tonight he will be showcasing his tribute to the iconic Cuban band The Buena Vista Social Club. The band and the Grammy-winning album of the same name released in 1996 became a worldwide phenomenon, selling over eight million records. Featuring Chris Bowden-sax, Tom Hill-bass/vocals, Miles Levin-drums and Nestor Pedrales-percussion this project is Edgar’s “take” on that album, featuring his arrangements of all the classic tracks for a Latin Jazz Quintet. If you like Latin music you will love this!
A five-piece band that combines different styles from the most trad jazz rhythms to funk and South American folk. Originally from Venezuala, Edgar has been playing his blend of Latin & jazz in Birmingham for some time and leads his excellent group doing exactly that. Always a hit wherever they play.
