Grammy Award-nominated Tiempo Libre is one the hottest young Latin bands today. Equally at home in concert halls, jazz clubs and dance venues, the Miami-based band has become known for its incendiary, joyful performances of timba, an irresistible, dance-inducing mix of high-voltage Latin jazz and the seductive rhythms of son. Tiempo Libre musicians are true modern heirs to the rich tradition of the music of their native Cuba.
“Traditional Cuban classics meet soaring joyful vocals and an impressive horn and percussion section, driving a booty-shaking party guaranteed to pick up your mood.”
—San Francisco Spectrum
“A COMPÁS!”
Paco Peña, through “A Compás!” brings the true spirit of flamenco to Ogden and audiences all over the world. As guitarist, composer, dramatist and mentor, Peña builds inventively
on the deep foundations of flamenco. His imagination, dedication and skill constantly renew this archetypal Spanish art form. He expands its horizons yet never loses touch with its visceral emotion. A New York Times dance critic hailed “A Compás!” for “the range and depth of artistry on display, from Mr. Peña’s quiet but fierce leadership at the guitar to the regal, smoldering dancing of Ángel Muñoz.”
