Hailing from Havana, Cuba, they bring the fiery energy and authenticity of Cuban music to every performance. Now based in the northwest of England, they've teamed up with Manchester drummer Laurie Agnew to create a unique blend of Salsa, Timba, and Bachata.

The band’s sound is all about energy and passion. Salsa De Cuba strives to play Cuban music as it exists today in Cuba, maintaining an authentic feel with every beat. Juan and Reinier’s Cuban upbringing ensures that the music is deeply rooted in tradition, while still bringing a fresh and modern edge. Their shared love for Timba brought Juan, Rei and Laurie together. The exciting blend of Salsa and Rumba gives Timba its energy. It's not always polite, but it always fills the dance floor. Alongside this enthusiasm for Timba, the band are committed to maintaining a love and respect for its roots - Salsa.

For Salsa De Cuba, the music is not just about the rhythms—it’s about creating an experience and making a connection with their audience. Whether it's a night of dancing, romancing, or enjoying plenty of rum, they aim to keep the energy high and the dance floors packed.
