Grupo Vacilón consists of 4 musicians.
Piano: The Havana Conservatory-trained pianist Yox, who mixes Cuban songs with swinging jazz patterns and then in them reverts to the rhythms of Cuban music.
Flute: The exceptionally good improvising flutist Manuel, also from the Havana conservatory. He plays swinging rhythms, beautiful solos, sings catchy choruses and keeps the tempo high.
Vocals: Marijke for more than 20 years familiar with Cuban music which she sings with a warm timbre. Sometimes lead, sometimes serving the piano or flute with rousing choruses. Or she sings solo the sweetest Cuban love songs. All with great feeling and love for the Cuban heritage.
Percussion: Conga/ bongo player Guido. knows all about South American rhythms and supports the band and keeps the rhythm steady.
We play for about 2 hours with a break.
