Sambroso All Stars present
The Buena Vista Social Club

Saturday, 20th March 2027 - 7:30pm


Is there a more iconic Cuban album than Buena Vista Social Club's eponymous debut?  Winning the Grammy for Best Traditional Tropical Latin Album, it remains a high watermark not just for Cuban music but world music as a whole.  It is one of only two non-English speaking albums to be included in Rolling Stone's 500 greatest albums of all time list. 

 Doing this album any sort of justice is no easy task, but there isn't anyone better than Sambroso Allstars, the beating heart of London's Cuban community and music scene.  Led by maestro percussionist Oreste “Sambroso” Noda, who has firmly established himself as one of UK’s leading Congeros, performing with everyone from Jazz Jamaica to James Taylor Quartet to Lokkhi Terra.  Hugh Masekela said of him “this guy is so good he should be arrested!”  The band, a bonafide 'all star' group of Cuban musicians, will pay their own unique and irresistible tribute to the landmark album.


‘From strong Cuban roots, big things grow’ 〰️ Oreste ‘Sambroso’ Noda
