Three years in the making, 'Mocombo In Habana Project' features two full CD's of music, filming project with the National Comtempory Dance Company.
By the time the time the project completed the recording sessions, over 50 percent of the musicians on the two CD release had departed from Cuba for other countries with no intention of returning.

It can also be said; Cuba’s loss is other countries gain.

I hope you get a chance to view some great fellow musicians in the 'Artist 'drop down menu including the amazing musicians and stories of Cuba and Jamaica.
There are great experiences inside each of the individual albums. As with real life, there is a lot of music and culturally diversity in much of the music found on the site. In addition, each album is unique in its own way.
Each and every music CD released from Mocombo is different in style and nature. In commercial terms, the music can be said to be jazz, blues, folk, reggae, rock, funk, timba, fusion etc.
