The Pedrito Martinez Group

The Pedrito Martinez Group
Presented by GAM Foundation/Jazz SLC at Capitol Theatre
The Pedrito Martinez Group has its roots planted firmly in the Afro-Cuban Rumba tradition and in the bata rhythms and vocal chants of the music of Yoruba and Santeria. Ben Ratliff summed it up aptly for the New York Times calling it, “complex, blenderized Africa-to-the-New-World funk.” Since its formation, the Pedrito Martinez group has developed into an extraordinarily tight and creative unit delighting fans worldwide.
