CUBANITO Latin Vibe, 27th December 2004 After some three or four appearances over the years at Latin Vibe, Cubanito have upped their game from being 'just another' entertaining latin dance band to become one of the finest in the land. And they do this by keeping it rootsy - good vocals, percussion, acoustic tres guitar, occasionally (as today) a keyboard - and that's about it. This is warm, funky beach-party music - but the extra ingredient is the outstanding repertoire of own material composed chiefly by lead singer/tresero Jesus Cutino. Although firmly rooted in dancefloor sensibilities, Cutino's melodies and lyrics owe as much to the nueva trova school of latino songwriting - Pablo Milanes, Silvio Rodriguez, Juan Luis Guerra and the like - as to son and salsa. Now we need an LP: who's going to sign them? |
