"Growing from a trio into a powerful ten-piece since its inception in 2003, De La Buena electrifies audiences with its unique take on Afro-Cuban and Latin Jazz infused with a touch of the psychedelic. Formed and nurtured by pianist / arranger / band leader David Wake & percussionist / vocalist Cecilio Negron Jr. AKA Cee Loe, the ensemble features some of the region’s finest musicians with loads of regional, national & international touring experience. Behind David’s expansive arrangements, Cecilio’s explosive percussive prowess and the charisma of percussionist / singer Julio Pabon, De La Buena has rightfully become a Milwaukee institution & one of the city’s most sought after acts. A deep-seated love of the delicate harmonic nuance of American Jazz music, and the exploration of our planet’s vast, varied & myriad rhythmicultural landscapes drive De La Buena to push the limits of the musical textures and rhythms of the Americas while paying homage to the traditions of the Caribbean and Africa. Whether you are a listener or a dancer; a connoisseur or a novice, De La Buena has got something for you."
