About the Artists:
Cumbia River Band’s music draws from a festive repertoire of Colombian Cumbia and Riverside music. Their sounds will take you back to the golden years of Cumbia as well as inspire you to dance and contemplate the joy and energy that this Cumbia River brings along. Featuring tuba, accordion, clarinet, percussion, guitar and voices, the band delivers a captivating performance, which honors both traditional and contemporary sounds.
“The Cumbia River Band somehow manages to create a distinctly New York style of cumbia, one that has an elegant jazzy swing to it. Of course it’s still true to the cumbia’s roots as a dance form.” John Schaefer, radio host at WNYC
