Son Yambu

Son Yambu are a UK based band play authentic Cuban son - the essential Afro-Cuban sound that originated in the streets of eastern Cuba and gave rise to modern salsa. The band members, who all have a lifetime's experience playing son, mainly come from Santiago De Cuba (the birthplace of son) and are all passionate about maintaining the traditions of the genre. Playing their irresistible tropical rhythms, Son Yambu bring their audiences a truly sensational, authentic Latin-music experience, and their music is guaranteed to turn any event into a fiesta. 'The UK's very own Buena Vista band... absolutely tremendous... if you don't start to move to this there is no hope for you! Extraordinary music' (Sean Rafferty, BBC Radio 3).
