SUMMARY:Orquesta Mambarito
DESCRIPTION:Get ready for London’s salsa sensation Orquesta Mambarito! They’ll be burning up red-hot classics from 70s New York\, Colombia\, Puerto Rico and beyond. The 13-strong group has a classic salsa line-up of trumpets\, trombones\, baritone sax and full Afro-Cuban rhythm section\, fronted by fabulous singers Nestor Rojas (Venezuela)\, Diego Abril (Colombia) and Victor Mastrangioli (Venezuela). ¡A gozar! \nBandleader David Strahan (baritone sax) brought the group together during dark days of Covid lockdown to make online video recordings of salsa classics like Ray Barretto’s Indestructible. Since then they have been gigging hard and building up an enthusiastic following in London’s Latino and salsa-dancing communities. The band’s name is a combination of ‘mambo’ and ‘baritono’ – the Spanish for baritone. \nAlong with many gigs around London\, Mambarito has played major festivals like Carnaval del Pueblo and the Sidmouth International Jazz Festival\, and plays regularly at Pizza Express Soho and Hyde Park Bandstand.\nThe band’s first single\, The Mambarito Mambo\, written and produced by Colombian vibes player and bandleader Dorance Lorza\, is now available on all the main streaming platforms. \n“Orquesta Mambarito\, without a doubt\, is one of the best live bands on the salsa scene\, great sound\, great vibe\, great energy\, I’ve never seen so many dancers on the floor when they play. If you don’t get up and dance to Orquesta Mambarito\, you don’t like salsa!”  
Tony Harrison\, Salsasmile\, Romford \n“There are few full-time ‘large’ Afro-Latin orchestras in the UK and Europe\, but Mambarito are up there with the very best…Always a massive hit at my weekly Saturday afternoon Latin Jazz Brunch sessions\, they just seem to get tighter and funkier each show.”
