Picoso

Started on the streets of Seattle, Picoso radiates raw energy at shows. Their original music innovates while remaining rooted in the fundamental extemporaneous groove and feeling of The Cachao Descarga Sessions. While many of Picoso's songs could be described as Salsa, Son or Cha cha, the power and spontaneity of Picoso's live performances cannot possibly be encapsulated in those three words.

Since the band's formation in 2004, Picoso has appeared live in Seattle at The Triple Door, Nectar, The Tractor Tavern, Lo-fi, The Seamonster Lounge, The Scarlet Tree, Tost, The Ballroom, Axis, Las Margaritas, The Mirabeau Room, Ethnic Fest 2005 (Tacoma) and The Bite of Seattle. Picoso has also been featured live on KEXP 90.3's Sonarchy Radio, KEXP 90.3's Wo' Pop as well as KBCS 91.3's Latin music show, Sabor.
