The Septeto Santiaguero is one of the traditional music’s peak in Santiago de Cuba nowadays. They have an overwhelming show and nobody dares to question their leadership in Cuban Orient. A lot of younger groups from Colombia till Miami perform their songs and also imitate their choreographies.

In their new album Los Mangos Bajitos, the Septeto Santiaguero has been looking for a new repertoire, no more covers.

One of their main advantage point are the three solo singers, who present a great variety of vocal resources. Their repertoire is based on own material because members of the group compose the lyrics. Their strongest point is the guaracha, always happy, quite hot and with a “montunos” (lively rhythm variations on the original score) that make the dance something irresistible.

After ten years touring Europe and America, among others having been called the grandsons of the Buena Vista Social Club until lately the Blues Brothers of the son, but they always have been and will be unmistakeable on stage.
