  • 6 S 1st Ave Walla Walla, WA, 99362 United States (map)

Please join us for free live music every Saturday night starting at 5 p.m. and 8 p.m. through September 10.

Son de Cuba is a sextet created by musicians from Chile, Mexico, the United States, and Cuba. They play salsa, timba, son, merengue, boleros, cumbia, bachata, Latin jazz, and more. The band consists of singer, piano, and bass piano player Nelson Morales, singer and minor percussion Freddy Vilches, singer Geisy Almanza, singer, percussionist, sax, and flute player Ramon Brizuela Martinez, American drummer Jackson Coffey, and singer, percussionist, and band manager Tony Gonzalez. They are based in Portland, Oregon.

Since four of the band members are Cubans, they have roots in Latin, African, and jazz rhythms. They blend this vast knowledge of different beats together in classic and modern Latin songs, exuding energy, happiness, and encouraging you to dance. With only six performers, they have a full sound, and will draw a crowd with their energy and love for their music. Dancing is encouraged, they may even join you!
