Crisp, clean and tight. These musicians understand Latin jazz. Encarnacion is a wonderful expression of the feel and attitude of the genre. A pleasure to enjoy in the am, pm, alone, at a party or driving in full fidelity!

Latin jazz has been called the perfect union: the artful combination of the dynamic rhythms of the Caribbean with the melodic sophistication of jazz. That also describes the music of AfroBop Alliance, an exciting 7-piece ensemble based in the Washington DC area. With the release of their first CD, “Encarnacion (Incarnation)” AfroBop Alliance makes a bold statement about their approach to Latin jazz.
