Compro Oro

Ghent based latin jazz collective Compro Oro explores traditional Latin and Cuban rhythms intermingled with wild guitar riffs and exotic vibraphone infusions.

Don't expect a merry salsa gang or mini skirt dancers sipping cuba libre's in the "noche caliente"-atmosphere of touristic Havana. Compro Oro offers wild, profound and uncanny flavours, slowly fermented in some dingy slum's basement. Digging deeper into several ethnic music traditions leaving the audience dancing on dark grooves with a tinge of psychedelica.

Or: a twang-American, psychedelic underground road trip to Africa, the Middle East and the Americas.
