Don't Let The Holidays Pass Without
Some Explosive Latin Jazz Excitment!
Can you feel that beat? Get in the groove of legendary percussionist Sammy Figueroa as he brings an “explosion” of contagious latin jazz rhythms. Considered one of the world’s best congueros, Sammy takes audiences on a journey with his versatile playing and storytelling through sound and rhythm. In this special holiday performance, Sammy and his band will perform selections which include traditional Puerto Rican Christmas music to celebrate the season.
A prolific session player and worldclass percussionist, Sammy has collaborated with an extensive list of renowned artists, including David Bowie, Chaka Khan, Diana Ross, Miles Davis, Quincy Jones and Mariah Carey. Known for playing in multiple musical styles, Sammy plays a variety of percussion instruments and is especially well-known for his unique conversational style on the congas.
