“Hey Ben, do you play Latin music?” asked trombonist Victor Poretz that fateful day in the summer of 2014. “Sure Vic what do you have in mind?” replied Benoir, and the group was born. The first rehearsals with Ben Brewer bass and Lee Farber - percussion/vocals landed a date at Corazon De Cuba early in the summer. People went nuts over the sound of the band, and joined the party with all the tambourines and percussion we brought along. We expanded the group members to include other bassists (they are all in high demand) like Lou Carollo Jr, and Brendan Moynihan and added guest vocalist/violinist J Brittany. We branched out to a few other venues like Spiaggia, Cancun, and were invited to play at Arts In the Plaza and the Long Beach Jazz Festival. Our original songs “Flora Del Mundo” and “Eflatino” are well received at each show, and our covers include Latin Jazz, Merengue, Salsa, and traditional standards. We are excited to be playing so much and hope that you can come out to see us soon. Big thank you to our friends, fans, and the venues! Gracias!
