More In Common

The latest from 2014 Latin Grammy nominee, Mister G. An all-original, indie, bilingual album featuring Latin superstars from around the world. Available worldwide on June 23, from Coil Records. 

Dubbed a “kid-friendly, bilingual rock star” by The Washington Post, Mister G enlisted dozens of his compadres to collaborate on the album. The result is a unique fusion of salsa, jazz, Tejano, bolero, folk and rock featuring major Latin luminaries from around the world.

Recorded in studios as far flung as New York, Los Angeles, Buenos Aires, Miami, San Francisco, Amsterdam, San Antonio, and Boston, Los Animales is a true multicultural, international project.  Some of the biggest names in Latin Jazz lend their virtuosic talents to the album, including 4-time GRAMMY award winning pianist Arturo O’Farrill, 3-time GRAMMY award winning bassist Oscar Stagnaro, and 2-time GRAMMY winning drummer, Vince Cherico.

The album kicks off with the electrifying piano playing of Arturo O’Farrill on the title track, accompanied by Mister G’s driving acoustic guitar, and a chorus of bilingual children.  Next up is “Vamonos” (Let’s Go), a celebratory song about visiting the zoo, which begins by posing the question, “¿Cuál es tu animal favorito?” (What’s your favorite animal?).  “Siete Elefantes” is a counting song brimming with traditional Latin percussion instruments (timbale, guira, bongos, congas); the music video was animated by Argentinean-based collaborators who have created several videos for Mister G (Cocodrilo, The Bossy E).

The captivating Tejano sounds of “La Rana” (The Frog), and “El León y la Luna” (The and the Moon), were recorded in San Antonio by 13-time GRAMMY winning producer/engineer Gilbert Velasquez.  The rich, playful vocal styling of the great Cuban singer, Estrella Acosta, enlivens both tunes. “Baila Como Las Hormigas” (Dance Like the Ants) is a full-blown fiesta written and recorded in Miami with GRAMMY-winning, Puerto Rican salsa artist, Marlow Rosado. “Buenos Noches” (Good Night), a duet with Brazilian singer Mari Nobre, sends young listeners off to sleep for a night of sweet, animal-filled dreams.  Acclaimed Mexican artist Marcos Almada Rivero created the folkloric-inspired original art for the album.

One of the leading figures in the children’s music world, Mister G had an award-winning career performing for adults prior to earning a masters degree in elementary education and focusing on making music for children.  Awarded the first songwriting scholarship in the history of Berklee College of Music, Mister G is a prolific writer, and Los Animales is his 6th release for children in the last six years.  He regularly headlines major venues throughout the US including the Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York), Hard Rock Café (Philadelphia), Coolidge Corner Theatre (Boston), The Getty Museum (Los Angeles), National Zoo (Washington, DC), and Chicago Botanic Garden (Chicago).  A national tour follows the release of Los Animales, which will continue into Latin America in 2016.

Los Animales will be available from Mister G’s website (www.mistergsongs.com), Amazon, iTunes, and other retailers in June.  All pre-release sales of Los Animales will be donated to The Humane Society of the United States and Mexico.

CABOCUBAJAZZ  NEW RELEASE 2017: CORASON AFRICANO

An irresistible musical celebration and one of the most ingenious musical fusion concepts ever conceived - whatever you need, it’s there!   Kabir Sehgal - GRAMMY Award winner, bestselling author (NYC)

Africa is the mother of Jazz, música Cubana and much other South American/Caribbean music. In this new transatlantic adventure, CABOCUBAJAZZ goes further than ever before. Beautiful melodies and improvisations come together with Senegalese beats, Cape Verdean rhythms like Funana, Coladera and hard swinging Cuban music - creating once again an irresistible musical blend. 

On 13 smoking tracks of CORASON AFRICANO, the listener and also the dancer is taken on a colorful journey where longing, passion, subtleness and hot musical fire alternate. Take for example Boy Gé's exclusively composed Africa tribute 'Corason Africano' or the exuberant 'Boas Festas', a musical party: each piece celebrates the overwhelming magic of African music.

Composers include legends like Boy Gé, Eugénio Tavares, Mendes Brothers, 
Horace Silver and the band members.

Nils Fischer (one of Europe's top percussionists) and Cape Verdean master-pianist Carlos Matos started the journey of CaboCubaJazz. Their best musical friends joined immediately: singers Dina Medina (Cape Verde) and Alberto Caicedo (Colombia) are a perfect match. The dream team is completed by stellar musicians: Yerman Aponte from Venezuela on bass, Cuban drummer Armando Vidal, trombonist Pablo Martínez (Spain) and Puerto Rican trumpet ace Joe Rivera. 
The production is topped off by the participation of guests from aa. Mastered by legendary Bob Katz in Florida.

Special guests CORASON AFRICANO
Boy Gé Mendes, Luisíto Quintero, Dudu Araújo, Laise Sanches, Amik Guerra & many others!
