Fiesta Latina will be opening for Diáspora, A celebration of Cuban music at The Jazz Cafe on 4th September. Here are some photos of our opening set at An evening in Cuba a couple of weeks ago... ¡Sabor! #instant #latin #house #party "We hired Fiesta Latina to play at our Summer Ball. They were to play at the beginning of the evening to create the atmosphere and to get everyone in the mood. Fiesta Latina turned up in plenty of time and were nothing but professional. They went above and beyond what they needed to do and were very much appreciated.
The music that they played was perfect. It was just the right blend of upbeat and chilled to allowed all party goings to mingle and be heard but also enjoy the music. I would have no issues recommending this band to anyone and using them for future events. Many thanks for all your assistance and please pass on my thanks to the band."
