We are mainly inspired by the likes of Eddie Palmieri, Spanish Harlem Orchestra, Tito Puente, also the Fania All stars and our music reflects that.  These bands and musicians helped create the magical music of Salsa and it is the ambition of mine and the rest of the band keep that style of music alive for years to come.
