We pride ourselves for allowing diverse audiences to enjoy a wide variety of rhythms and songs from Latinamerica and the Caribbean. Follow the VIDEOS menu for us featuring on TV and live venue videos. Also for our Latin Music Videos produced during lockdown. The latest one is a cover of The Peanut Vendor (El Manicero)

By May 17th 2021, all members of the band would have received the first dose of the vaccine against Coronavirus, COVID-19. For increased security, we can perform with perspex screens in front of our microphones for safe singing. We will maintain a safe distance between us (the band) and the audience. All our instruments and equipment are quite compact for easy, fast and secure transport, setting up and cleaning.

Most public venues will not allow a band on stage without a valid Public Liability Insurance Certificate. We hold a £10 million PLI Certificate issued by The Musicians' Union for our client's peace of mind. We can provide a copy of our Certificate on request.

We are quick to respond, use the Quick Contact menu to get in touch.

THE APPEAL OF LATIN MUSIC

So what is it that makes Tropical/Latin music such a different and interesting musical style, and so suitable for parties, events and celebrations? We think the secret is its power to transport the listener to an "exotic world". Described as attractive or striking because colourful or out of the ordinary, the exotic element of Tropical Music is obvious. All the musical styles in Latin America and the Caribbean originate from a rich mixture of African elements (Rhythm, instrumentation, believes, thematics) with indigenous (native people of the Americas before the European colonisation) and European elements (again, their own instrumentation, themes and styles). To learn more you can check the recent BBC Series about Latin Music.

Los Musicos London Latin Band has kept going during the lockdown time across the UK. We have collaborated remotely to produce amusing videos (covers and originals) of our Latin and salsa Music repertoire. Please visit our Facebook page to enjoy our latest "Coronavirus pandemic time" collaboration videos. Browse our Instagram for our most recent entries about Latin and Salsa music performances across the United Kingdom and Europe.

We are looking forward to the return of Live Music in the UK. NME Online magazine predicts that things will start returning to a kind of normality with the rolling out of the vaccine. The sooner we all get the vaccine the quicker we will be performing for our audiences!.

Los Musicos Latin and Tropical band is versatile and can bring that special sparkle to a party or underline your aims when you are putting on a show, corporate event or Chilli Festival.

We have years of experience playing at weddings - during the reception, at drinks or when it is time for dancing the night away!. We can play as a duet, trio, quartet or five piece salsa band. The duo is ideal for that special touch of a "Serenata" (serenade) for your loved one. Traditionally the musicians arrive un-announced under the balcony of your dearest and play one or more "boleros".

As a Latin Music duet, we can play a few tunes in a Gypsy Jazz Style. The 3, 4 or 5 piece provides a punchy sound that goes well as background music (during drinks at weddings) or as the main act in a World Music Festival.

Some of the Latin musical styles included in our extensive repertoire: Bolero, Son Cubano, Traditional and modern Cumbia, Peruvian Cumbia also known as Chicha or Psychedelic Cumbia, Merengue, Cha-cha-cha, Balada, Bossa nova, Tango, Rumba, Ranchera, Mexican Corrido.

Also a few more traditional and less well known rhythms like the Colombian Currulao. Please contact us if you would like a comprehensive list of tunes or let us know if there is a song from the Latin American repertoire which you would like us to play at your event. If you are after a DJ, you can check Function Central DJs selection.

Please contact us with your requirements (the number of guests, venue size, type of occasion, date, etc) and we will tailor the appropriate Latin and tropical music service for you. We are based in London and Bristol but perform across the UK and Europe.
