Introduction: We bring an energetic mix of original Afro-Brazilian, Afro-Peruvian, Tropical, Amazonian sounds and Latin flavors uniquely fused with more modern styles such as Reggae, Disco, R&B, Pop, etc.
Our band is always exploring new sound combinations to bring you catchy, feel-good music to enjoy at any event. Although most of our music is original, we also perform covers by Latin and World artists.
Band Bio:
Sang Matiz has been performing for 6 years, fusing World and Afro-Brazilian/Peruvian beats with contemporary rhythms such as Pop, Jazz, and Funk. Thanks to a grant awarded by The California Arts Council Endowment for the Arts and The San Francisco Arts Commission for Cultural Equity, they released the album, Ship It!.
Most recently in August 2015, they were chosen and honored to open for the legendary Cuban band "Buena Vista Social Club" Orchestra for their Adios Tour." Throughout the years, theyve also had the great opportunity to collaborate with various renowned Bay Area musicians such as: Jackeline Rago (Master Percussionist), Miguelito Martinez (Flutist/Composer), Silvestre Martinez (Composer/Percussionist), and Grammy Award-winner Braulio Barrera (Pacific Mambo Orchestra), among many others. In addition, they've had the pleasure of sharing the stage with national and international acts such as Jorge Santana (Malo) and Pete Escovedo.
Aside from the sheer enjoyment of making and performing music, we love making people dance and connect with our music =)
