Cucho Martinez & Friends

Bassist Cucho Martinez has long been a revered presence in Latin jazz rhythm sections, supporting the ensembles of Horace Silver, Mongo Santamaria, Tito Puente, Paquito D’Rivera and many more. Also adept at maracas and cuatro, he is perhaps best known for his 50-year partnership with the late, great percussionist Ray Mantilla, whose repertoire and distinctly swinging sound carries on in this group.

This event is made possible by the Omomuki Foundation & Jazz Bird Records. Supported in part by an award from the National Endowment for the Arts, the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council, and by the Howard Gilman Foundation.
