Mazacote is the
hard-swinging, old-school salsa group led by legendary percussionist Louie
Romero, who came to fans’ attention as the longtime timbales player for famed
salsero "El Cantante" Hector Lavoe. Louie is also renowned for his
work with Willie Colón, Rubén Blades, Celia Cruz, Ron Carter, and other salsa
and jazz stars in his native New York.
Based in San Francisco,
Mazacote plays a crowd-pleasing, high-energy mixture of classic salsa favorites
and original latin jazz tunes. It’s no wonder that Latin Beat magazine called
Mazacote "one of the premier salsa ensembles in Northern California."
Recently,
the band released the album “Timbalero.” Its title track is a fresh take on
Louie’s classic 1972 recording of the song with Hector Lavoe and Willie Colón.
The album -- filled with soulful and danceable salsa, cha-cha, latin jazz,
Cuban guajira, and bomba -- is receiving rave reviews from dancers, DJs, and
music critics alike.
"Louie has reached a
level of musicianship where he is now a state-of-the-art player...The dancers
will be in salsa bliss with swinging tunes like 'Si Tu No, La Otra,' 'Tinguaro'
and 'Yémbere.'" -- Latin Beat Magazine
