Manolito Simonet Y Su Trabuco

about

Founded on February 25, 1993, and having already started to develop their style when various key members were part of Maravilla de Florida, Manolito y su Trabuco was one of the first timba bands, but it wasn't until the second wave, in 1995, that they released their first album, Directo al corazón. In 2006, about to release their 7th album, Hablando en serio, they've enjoyed a gradual and steady rise in popularity and are now generally considered to be among the top three or four true timba bands in Havana. We strongly recommend that you see this band live if humanly possible. Like Issac Delgado, Manolito y su Trabuco is one of those bands that you have to see live to fully appreciate how great they are -- one of the tightest and most powerful ensembles on the planet. They tour Europe regularly and keep threatening to extend their touring to the US. So far they've only played a few times in NY and Miami. Of course, they're a regular fixture of the Havana club scene. Manolito Simonet was the musical director and pianist for Maravilla de Florida before forming the Trabuco. The group features a unique instrumentation of violin, cello, flute, two trumpets and two trombones, plus synth, piano, congas, bass and an absolute powerhouse of a drummer, Roicel Riverón. The singing is exquisite with the incomparable Sixto "El Indio" Llorente, singer/writer Ricardo Amaray, and newcomer "Mayami". The first five albums also feature the wonderful Rosendo "El Gallo" Díaz, one of the most dis
