Traditional Cuban music runs in the veins of Leslie Cartaya with Jazz and Funk shaping her musical personality. Born in Cuba to a very close family that enjoys warm afternoons improvising a melody, she joined the Paló band in 2003. She is a Grammy winner in the Best New Artist category and the vocalist for both these songs.
Paló is a Miami-based Cuban band nominated for a Grammy and Latin Grammy for their album PALÓ. They perform their own type of music called Afro-Cuban funk. Think funky, jazzy, salsa.
