Sonora Carruseles

Colombian Sonora Carruseles burst into the local tropical scene performing Afro-Caribbean rhythms, including a traditional style known as salsa brava, originated in the 1960s. Formed in 1995 by composer/producer Diego Galé and Mario Rincón, the group became a boogaloo and original salsa revival, taking over Latin America, the U.S., and Europe after releasing 1998's Heavy Salsa and 1999's Salsa y Fuego. ~ Drago Bonacich
