Soulsa
Soulsa
is a latin group made up
of new yorkers from different musical
backgrounds. The group brings a new
mix of rock and the Afro-Cuban rhythms
of salsa. A good idea, considering
the fact that today's Latin music
is expanding in all different directions.
The group was formed in 2002 in Washington
Heights, NY. A neighborhood known
for its embrace of Latin music.
Soulsa
contains all the energy of a rock
group combined with the sensuality
and elegance of today's salsa bands.
This pleases the public, both Latino
and non-Latino alike.
The
absence of piano and brass manages
to give the band a less traditional
sound, while the guitar brings in
a harder edge. Ben Ohmart from "LA
Ritmo.com" wrote it best by stating
"when Santana broke the mainstream
barrier in the 60's, blending rock
with Latin rhythms, they probably
had no idea just how far their influence
would stretch into the arena 40 years
later. Here we are at the latest sensation...
Soulsa!".
Soulsa
has played in various clubs in New
York City such as Nuyorican Poets
Café, China Club and Gonzalez
& Gonzalez. They have also performed
at private events for Oscar de la
Renta, VOGUE magazine, Havana Film
Festival and Time Inc. Most recently,
Soulsa was invited to perform at BMI's
"Latin Lingo" music showcase
for Latin Alternative bands.
