Gary Núñez & Plena Libre Touring the United States

07/04/2007 01:36AM

Puerto Rican band Plena Libre will be performing in California, New York, Boston, Rhode Island and Pennsylvania. Plena Libre's show is a high-energy show and hard-driven native Puerto Rican folkloric rhythms plena and bomba, infused with salsa, jazz, other Afro-Caribbean rhythms, and topped with sizzling horn charts.
 
 Combining a swinging rhythm section, horns and vocals, Plena Libre's music has been given new light and patterns with contemporary dance floor styles such as songo, samba, reggae, salsa and pambiche.
