Sonia Santana & The Saratoga Band
Hip. Stalysh. Sophisticated. At home in the fashionable night clubs of London, Paris, Barcelona, New York. Good Looking, well-educated, ligt years from folsky straw hats and broken pianos. This is the new generation: Cuba the cool.
The mission: the renaisance of one of the high points of world culture, the Havana Casino big band sound of the late 40`s/early 50`s.
Modus operandi: simple. Just bring together some of the best musicians in the universe. 100% Cuban, of corse.
The music: ultra cool, stylish takes and tongue-in-cheek reinterpretations of the classic themes of the 40`s and 50`s. Cubanised American pop of the period. Smooth, chic and disciplined but throbbing with vitality. Real music to liberate the technology-bound.
