El Sonido de Cuba brings the full spectrum of Cuban music to Section 8
Section 8 is about to get very rhythmic, with El Sonido de Cuba landing on 15 November.
Hosted by DJs Sista Sara and Wichy de Vedado, El Sonido de Cuba is billed as an in-depth journey through the sounds of Cuba.
The night travels from son, rumba and timba through to reparto, hip hop and electronic, taking in the whole range of the island’s music.
Both DJs will be on the decks, with the focus on celebrating that music and the community around it.
Joining the DJs is a crew of live performers bringing dance, percussion and vocals to the floor. Aloy Junco, of Cubaneo, and Orlando Valdor both hail from Cuba, while Adrian Hearn, of Suns of Mercury, rounds out the main billing.
