The Havre de Grace Arts Collective presents: Downtown Tumbao

Forged in Mexico City and recently transplanted to Baltimore, Downtown Tumbao’s sound is one of borderlands that merge Afro-Caribbean and Brazilian beats, creating an original, synergistic mix of Jazz, Bossa Nova, Swing, Bolero and Son. Downtown Tumbao brings together rising talent of the DMV with seasoned skill, as they experiment at the crosswords of new and perennial themes. The band of vocals, sax, keyboard, bass guitar, percussion and drums spotlights traditional music of Latin America to preserve and reclaim it in an act of restoration and revival.
