Afro-Cuban (Salsa), Vallenato, Bachata, Merengue, Calypso, Soca, Zouk, Soukous (Afro-Pop), Hi-Life, Kalinda etc. and the list goes on and on!!!
There’s so much more to the music of Africa and the Caribbean Islands than what most people perceive. Each style is distinctly different and more exciting than the next. Tropikiimba’s specialty is Afro-Latino music, which is guaranteed to get people up their feet and dancing; for example: Salsa, Timba, Songo, Bolero, Danzon, Cha Cha Cha, Charanga, Rumba, Bachata, Merengue and Vallenato. The band can also play other African or Afro-Caribbean styles if needed for special events.
The band has musicians from countries such as Cuba, Puerto Rico, Venezuela, Panama, Colombia, Peru, Dominican Republic, Mexico, St. Thomas and the United States. These musicians have also played with an equally vast contrast of artists as well, such as: Ruben Blades, Conjunto Classico, NG La Banda, Carlos Santana, Paulito F.G., Oscar D’Leon, Gilberto Santa Rosa, Victor Manuel, Son 14 etc. With such a first class all-star line up of musicians, it is no surprise that this group consistently delivers a very energetic, interactive and lively show. They have proven this by getting people up on their feet dancing and screaming at every show from the East Coast to the West Coast of the United States all the way to Asia.
