Groove to the irresistible, rhythmic beats of Puerto Rico! El Laberinto del Coco is a groundbreaking Puerto Rican Bomba fusion ensemble dedicated to preserving, expanding, and reimagining one of the island’s oldest Afro–Puerto Rican musical traditions. Rooted in Bomba’s deep African diasporic heritage, the project fuses traditional rhythms, dance, and call-and-response with jazz, funk, Afro-Caribbean, and contemporary global sounds, creating an electrifying and immersive live experience. Led by percussionist and composer Héctor “Coco” Bárez, the ensemble brings together 14 musicians committed to cultural continuity, innovation, and collective expression.
Fuel up with tasty treats and sips – desserts and beverages will be provided!
