Viento de Agua
Band Biography

  • From: New York, NY
  • No. of Members: 12
  • Year Established: 1997

Viento de Agua, is an Afro-Puerto Rican ensemble that fussions the traditional genres of Bomba and Plena with other Caribbean genres and jazz. The band has a unique and contemporary style and a powerful sound. Their first album, De Puerto Rico al Mundo, is packed with their contagious rhythm.

Created by percussionist Tito Matos and jazz musicians Ricardo Pons and Alberto Toro, Viento de Agua feautures an impresive brass section, the traditional 'panderetas' or hand held drums plus a drum set, congas, bass, piano and bomba drums.

Their innovative project takes the genres of bomba and plena to an urban cosmopolitan sound. The music is aimed to both listeners and dancers. Viento de Agua, literally means the damp air that precedes heavy rain, and this band is for sure a rainstorm of flavor.
