On FELICIDAD, the six musicians from Cuba, Colombia, and Germany, led by singer Mayelis Guyat (including The Voice of Germany), ignite a veritable firework display of salsa, son cubano, bolero, and cha cha chá. The band skillfully combines rousing classics from the Cuban and international repertoire, as well as exciting original compositions, with plenty of positive energy. Modern, urban, and always danceable – a Caribbean feel and explosive salsa straight from the heart of Berlin.
The first single, "De Donde Es El Son" (release date: June 19.06.2020, XNUMX), is an up-tempo Cuban son and tells of the eternal dispute over the invention of the "son" – the Cuban style that forms the basis of salsa music. "Where does the son originate?" is the question that has long been a rivalry between the residents of Havana and the eastern provinces of Cuba (Oriente). There is equally passionate debate about where the son is better danced. A special guest on FELICIDAD is Cuban rumba and folklore legend Juan "Chan" Campos Cárdenas (*1939). The Havana-born singer is co-founder of the group Yoruba Andabo and won the Premio Grammy Latino with this group.
