Event Description
August 1st - Turiya Mareya performs at Herman's with Cuban Drummer - Gilberto Moreaux and Bassist Ash Richardson
~
Gilberto, or "Gilbertónn," has performed as a drummer/timbaleros with nearly every major group in Cuba, in virtually every musical genre: from straight ahead jazz to traditional Cuban styles; from funk to rock, to Latin fusion. He is best known internationally for the "funk-in-clave" style of Afro-Cuban 'Salsa' known as Timba. He has been a featured member of many of Cuba's most popular groups, including Atempo, Medico de la Salsa, Bamboleo, The Power Generation, Charanga Habanera, and Charanga Forever. Gilbertónn is now living in Vancouver, quickly making a name for himself locally. One of the groups he plays with regularly is the great Cuban band D'Talle, as well as La Candela, Zapato Negro, Edgar Muenala, Alpha Yaya Diallo, Henry Brown.

Turiya Mareya's music is based on World Music influences and draws on the trance inducing and spirit calling focus of African and Indigenous music. She has shared the stage with such artists such as Arturo Sandoval, David Murray, Eddie Palmieri, Poncho Sanchez and Jane Bunnet. Since 2003 she has been touring and performing internationally. She has performed at Venues and Festivals in Madrid, Havana, Toronto, Vancouver, Juneau, Anchorage, Mexico City, Jalapa, Tijuana and San Diego.
