Manolito y su Trabuco

Manolito Simonet was musical director and pianist of Maravilla de Florida before forming Trabuco in the mid-nineties. The group comprises a unique instrumentation made up of a violin, cello, flute, two trumpets and two trombones, as well as a synthesizer, piano, congas, bass and the overwhelming energy of the drummer, Rociel Riverón.

The singing is exquisite thanks to the services of the incomparable Sixto "El Indio" Llorente, ex Klimax Carlos Calunga, and singer and composer Ricardo Amaray. The five records include the magnificent Rosendo "El Gallo" Díaz’s participation, musician who is currently member of the Revé Orchestra.

Those who love traditional Cuban music and think the timba is too modern for their taste will find what they are looking for in Manolito. He combines the authentic aroma of the son with the wild African fury of the timba in such a way that will leave them satisfied
