Lary Barilleau & The Latin Jazz Collective - Carmen's Mambo (OA2 Records 2013)

Teaming with the Grammy-winning arranger and trombonist Doug Beavers, Seattle-based composer and percussionist Lary Barilleau presents the debut recording of his Latin Jazz Collective. Recorded in San Francisco, New York and Seattle, Barilleau gathered friends he has met over his many years of performing to create a dynamic and fluid ensemble featuring Latin music giants, including Pete & Juan Escovedo, and jazz greats such as trombonist Julian Priester and multi-instrumentalist Jay Thomas. With compelling melodies and rich jazz harmonies along with electric Afro-Caribbean rhythms, the band reflects the best of classic Latin Jazz. OA2 Records
