Mazacote - Salsa, Bachata, Merengue and Cha Cha Cha

Mazacote is the hard-swinging, old-school salsa group of 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. Latin Beat magazine called Mazacote "one of the premier salsa ensembles in Northern California."
