ABOUT THE ARTISTS
Dimas Sánchez is an accomplished drummer and percussionist hailing from Puerto Rico. His musical journey has been shaped by the guidance of seasoned mentors such as Tony Sánchez, Keith Copeland, Ignacio Berroa, Ángel “Cachete” Maldonado and others. In the ‘80s, he immersed himself in the rich tapestry of Afro-Puerto Rican folklore under the tutelage of Jesús Cepeda, Petra Cepeda and Don Rafael Cepeda.
Throughout his illustrious career, Dimas has collaborated with a diverse spectrum of musicians and groups, including the Xavier Cougat Orchestra, Taller de Jazz Don Pedro, David Sánchez, Giovanni Hidalgo, Eddie “GuaGua” Rivera, Milly Puente, Gabriel Hernandez, Nestor Torres, Chuchito Valdes and many more. His musical repertoire extends to playing and producing Latin Jazz recordings with Eddie “GuaGua” Rivera's Opus Mundi, his own group Fusion Beat, and his latest endeavor, the Afro Latin Jazz Project.
Noteworthy festival appearances include Mundo Latino in Paris (with Tito Puente Jr.), SunFest in West Palm Beach, Clearwater Jazz Festival (David Sánchez), San Francisco Black and White Ball (Tito Puente Jr.), The Mastercard Jazz Festival in San Juan (David Sánchez), Jacksonville Jazz Festival (David Sánchez), Taste of 4th Ave in Birmingham, Alabama (David Sánchez), and Toros y Salsa in Dax, France (Iba a Se).
