Sobre las olas (Over the waves), is an upbeat song about how lovely it is to be surrounded by people coming and going who say hello to you.
That's something we've missed a lot in lockdown so we've changed the words …
Best wishes to my family at a distance, I miss all my friends who go dancing. Who can I sing with now? I want to go out and have fun, and live my life. Go away Corona
Tracionero is our new lockdown take on the 1996 hit song Tracionera by Oscar D'Leon.
It starts with a simmering bolero introducing the treacherous lover (male in our case). Her heart is dying, she drank the poison of his words.
Then it switches to a wild salsa, with the echoing coro I know that you will pay, traitor, you’ll get your comeuppance
We are a community salsa band, based in Leeds, with players from across Yorkshire.
The band is an excellent opportunity to develop skills in latin styles, rhythms and improvisation.
When the lockdown is finished, we will be taking bookings for more gigs, parties, weddings etc.
