THE CUBAN BROTHERS: Yo Bonita!

From humble beginnings Miguel Mantovani, Archerio Mantovani and Kengo San have built Los Hermanos Cubanos – The Cuban Brothers – into a legendary outfit that continuously sells out shows across the globe. Not only the entertainment of choice for Elton John, Richard Branson and Robbie Williams, the trio has also supported James Brown, Chuck Berry, Fatboy Slim, De La Soul, Talib Kweli and performed with the likes of The Prodigy, Q-Tip and Chic.

Taking their crazy live show into the studio, the band’s debut album Yo Bonita! showcases the guys live energy and blends sexy, soulful vocals with jaw-dropping funk. Yo Bonita! eschews building tracks around samples in favour of a real band dynamic, which lends the collection of original tracks and inspired covers a groove that is undeniably infectious. Giving more depth to the album, it features unique vocalists; Mica Paris, Omar Kurtis Blow, Yolanda Quartey (Massive Attack) and KT Turnstall.

The Cuban Brothers will embark on an Australian tour in support of their new album, and are even filming a comedy road movie ‘It’s A Long Way’ while they are out – a pilgrimage to original AC/DC vocalist Bon Scott’s grave in Western Australia.
