The Golden Age of Latin music lives in the exuberant sound of Brooklyn-based Los Hacheros. Feel an irresistible urge to dance as the band puts its mark on traditional folk styles like son montuno, guaracha, and salsa, while adding dashes of fiery Puerto Rican bomba rhythms. The musicians’ full-blooded sound is fueled by violin, trombone, flute, bell, gourd, congas, and tres (a guitar-like instrument from Cuba), providing a platform for soaring, soulful vocals.
