In 2007 I formed the latin Jazz bandThe Afro-Cuban Jazz Cartel. It is comprised of some of the best musicians the San Francisco Bay Area has to offer. Ranging in size from a trio to an eleven piece ensemble and versatile enough to perform quietly in a restaurant or exciting enough to keep a thousand people dancing at a festival. Regardless of the scenario you find the ACJC performing in, the music and the experience will always be of the highest quality. The group is capable of tailoring its performance to fit your needs. For more information, click on the ACJC tab on the menu above. |
The Brian Andres Latin Jazz Trio, the smallest formation of the Afro Cuban Jazz Cartel, will be performing at The Havana Sol Restaurant in Vallejo, Ca on the Eve of Valentines Day Saturday, February 13th. 9:30pm-1:00am. Music for listening and dancing. Featuring Christian Tumalan on piano and Fred Randolph on bass with very special guest on vocals: Gloria Amaral. Please stop out!

For those who don't know, you simply choose an artist you like (hopefully me! ) and they will automatically build a playlist of songs in the same style as your chosen artist. So if you're a fan of latin jazz, go build your station around me and enjoy many great artists! It's all FREE! |
