With its flair for performing in a variety of settings and musicians from both world and jazz music backgrounds, Riamba is one of the sought after Salsa bands on the London scene today.

Riamba came together in 1998 with the aim of performing traditional Cuban music in the Son style – the roots of Salsa. Drawing upon this style as its inspiration, the group set about creating a sound that combines the hot rhythms of Latin America with European harmony and the virtuosity of jazz. A combination that has resulted in a sound that energises musicians and dancers alike.

Riamba is made up of some of London’s finest musicians who have studied in Europe, Argentina, Columbia and Cuba. Their careers have led them to perform with internationally acclaimed artists in such diverse venues as: Pizza on the Park, The 606 Club, The Royal Festival Hall (London); Blue Note Club (New York); The Sydney Festival (Australia) and The National Theatre (Ghana).

Among other cities, Riamba may serve the following Greater London EN areas: London, Ilford, Romford, Hounslow, Uxbridge, Harrow, Enfield, Dagenham, Sutton, Bexleyheath, Barnet, Bromley, Croydon, Feltham, Erith, Hornchurch, Hayes, Kingston upon Thames, Orpington, Richmond, Sidcup, Southall, Surbiton, Twickenham, Wembley, Mitcham, Hampton, Greenford, Keston, Kenley
