Event
April Creative Cocktail Hour
Every third Thursday of the Month, creative, interesting and open-minded people gather to experience all kinds of art and connect with one another.
Building a bridge between Hartford and Cuba.
“By all accounts Cuba’s 2018 revelation of the year.” – Billboard
“Una de las luces del futuro del continente.” – Fito Páez
“One of the artists with the most future in Cuban music.” – Radio Gladys Palmera
“…people scale buildings to see him play.” – Vistar Magazine
Cimafunk may be the most exciting new face in Cuba’s music scene.
Cimafunk is a free being defying classification, a pilgrim in search of new musical miscegenation and the reunion of black music. He believes in nothing but the power of the Groove and the cathartic communion of dancing bodies. A renaissance man, conscious of his roots and musical ancestry, Cimafunk’s music looks firmly into the future.
