Raíces Cubanas, led by virtuoso violinist and musical director Omar Puente, Winner of the 2017 Lukas Award, have their roots in Cuban Son and Charanga (violins, trumpet, piano, bass, timbale, congas with a strong vocal front line) infused with Afro- Cuban jazz. Omar has toured worldwide with Cuban greats such as the late Ruben Gonzalez, Orlando “Cachaíto” López, Guillermo Rubalcaba, supported Tito Puente, Omara Portuondo and jammed with the Afro-Cuban All Stars. Over recent years he has performed, recorded and toured with British jazz stars Courtney Pine, Denis Baptiste, Gary Crosby among others.
