The Williamsburg Salsa Orchestra is a stunning 11-piece Latin band which is redefining the salsa genre and resetting the boundaries of the art form.  Instead of the typical repertoire and song forms, the WSO plays dynamic, dura arrangements of indie rock tunes we love, taking the art of salsa to new places while remaining within the classic tradition. 

New Album for 2018: DIALÉCTICA with 11 more tunes including 2 originals and 9 arrangements of songs by The Black Keys, The White Stripes, Animal Collective, The Cure, Wavves and many more.  

Our Debut Album, produced and arranged by Gianni Mano (from Latin funk legends Radio Mundial) has been critically acclaimed throughout the world, for its innovative groundbreaking approach to salsa. 
The WSO contains some of the best young players on the NYC scene with backgrounds from Argentina, Columbia, Puerto Rico, Panama and the good ol' US of A.  See us live and contact us about bookings in your area.
