BIO: Caribbean Swing (Swing Caribeño) represents a convergence of professional musicians who have been active in the Chicago music scene for more than 25 years. They bring together expansive musical training and ideas from diverse sources that include Cuban music, Puerto Rican style salsa, jazz, rock, rhythm and blues, classical, Latin folkloric, Jamaican, and Big band music. The name of the group was carefully chosen to reflect the musical background of the musicians and the music they play.

Caribbean Swing musicians have been playing since the 1960’s and have been recorded on various albums nationally and internationally with such accomplished musicians as Mongo Santamaria and Machito. Also, over the past three decades, the musicians in the band, have worked with numerous bands locally to keep in touch with their local roots.

Caribbean Swing brings the traditional Latin music to the new millennium with the balance of sizzling and smooth sounds for dancing or listening pleasures. Truly, not only is Caribbean Swing one of Chicago’s finest orchestras, but also one of Chicago’s most sought after.
