Venezuela All Stars

latin jazz hip-hop jazz

Influences: Dizzy Gillespie, Mongo Santamaría, Tito Puente

Venezuela All Stars is a percussion-led ensemble built around Baldo Verdú and a line-up of Venezuelan percussionists and musicians, drawing on the fiestas de tambores tradition and folkloric rhythms from Venezuela. The music blends those roots with contemporary London sounds, making it a rhythmic, celebratory set rather than a conventional jazz combo. The band is coming together for a one-off show to launch Baldo Verdú's brand-new album, with the night's proceeds going to earthquake relief through Healing Venezuela.

Personnel:
Baldo Verdú (percussion)
Orestes Gómez (percussion)
Lilliam Frías (vocals)
Orlando Poleo (percussion)
Gerardo Rosales (percussion)
Robert Quintero (percussion)
Johnny Gomez (percussion)
