Salsa/Indie Rock fusion | Williamsburg Salsa Orchestra | TEDxBushwick

Led by percussionist/arranger Gianni Mano (from the Latin-funk legends Radio Mundial), and fronted by Argentinian chanteuse, Solange Prat, the WSO has found an audience among new and classic salsa lovers, quickly becoming one of the most popular bands in New York City. WSO has taken the typical salsa form and infused it with a completely modern identity.
The Williamsburg Salsa Orchestra is a thrilling 11-piece salsa group which plays dynamic, dura arrangements of indie rock tunes we love. No bananas in the hair; this is innovative, astonishing salsa with a new, vibrant aesthetic. With an ever-evolving set list that includes songs by Arcade Fire, TV On The Radio, Spoon, M83, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Black Keys, and many more, the WSO has taken the typical salsa form and infused it with a completely modern identity.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

Amazing cover job. Great vocals! Y la musica chevere.🇵🇷👍👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@faith1965ful]

great musicians! lead singer reminds me of "Julianne" from "Los jovenes del Barrios"

[@mikhaelnegron7280]

The band is tight! The singer is refreshing in all her stage energy . Very Inviting and crowd pleasing, I would pay happily to watch and listen to them. They all have a respect for music and a passion of performers, whether learned talent or natural born.
Fellow musicians of self respect do not bash other talent..just saying :)
She sings beautifully and moves just fine in my opinion.
Music and dancing is about passion and expression, unfortunately some people know neither and usually are the ones who comment in demeaning form..
Thanks for the video..

[@fedeguevara14]

De la cantante sólo vas a remarcar que está "super rica" y que se mueve bien? Te parece justo?
