This Afro-Cuban collective is a true all-star band that fuses Afrobeat, funk, and Latin jazz to perfection. With virtuoso piano playing, swinging horns and a relentlessly grooving rhythm section, they are bursting with energy. Like "a seven-horse engine in the service of a new Cuban groove".
After a long European tour, they present their second album "Carousel" - exhilarating, virtuosic and completely open to encounters. From a free jazz introduction with a cha cha cha à la Thelonious Monk to a foray into classical and funky Latin jazz. Everything is possible.
El Comité met for the first time in 2017 in Toulouse (Jazz sur son 31) and Nîmes (Métropole Jazz Festival). They play and have played with the crème de la crème of the international scene - from Ray Lema to David Murray to Esperanza Spalding - and have been partners with the leading figures of Cuban music for 20 years: Irakere and Chucho Valdes, Omara Portuando, Los Van Van, Isaac Delgado, Buena Vista Social Club and many others.
