Suénalo

In the neon jungle of South Florida’s nightlife, where dusky bars and moonlit beaches intertwine, Suénalo has the natives dancing. Afro-Cuban, Latin, R&B, rock and hip-hop fuse effortlessly—it’s the sounds of distant continents coming into their own distinctive, premium blend—the soundtrack of the melting-pot culture that is Miami.

Created in 2002 in the vibrant neighborhood of Little Havana, Suénalo has won legions of loyal fans and Best Local Latin Rock Band honors from the Miami New Times. Suénalo has performed at important festivals such as the Latin Funk Festival in Miami and New York, Carnival on the Mile, Fete de la Musique, Calle Ocho, Hollywood Festival of Arts, Ashefest (North Carolina), Wahoo, and Langerado (headlined by Ben Harper, the Black Crowes, the Flaming Lips and Wilco). In addition, they’ve shared the stage with Afrobeat heavyweights Antibalas, Latin-Grammy winners Bacilos, and Latin-Grammy nominees Bossacucanova and Locos Por Juana.

Suénalo keeps a busy schedule performing at the premier venues in South Florida, including Jazid, Transit Lounge, Tobacco Road, and Circa 28 in Miami, the Bamboo Room in Lake Worth, and City Limits in Delray. A summer 2007 Florida tour took Suénalo to venues such as Common Grounds and The Side Bar in Gainesville, The Social in Orlando, the Underground in Tampa, Beachside Tavern in New Smyrna Beach, and Twisted Sisters in Jacksonville Beach. Suénalo received great accolades at Ashefest, a 3-day festival extravaganza held in North Carolina, sharing the stage with jam-band-scene greats Particle and New Monsoon.

Suénalo has released one live album, 2004’s Collages, and one studio album, self-titled Suénalo, released in 2006 to great acclaim. The band is planning to release a new studio album late 2008. (read less)
