Since moving to the Bay Area in 1996, Havana-born percussionist Carlos Caró has become a ubiquitous force on the Latin music scene, providing authoritative rhythmic support in numerous bands representing a dazzling array of Cuban styles, from 19th century danzón to 21st century timba. He launched Vission Latina 12 years ago to pursue his passion for high-energy salsa, and the band features an impressive cast of masters from across the Americas. A key addition came in 2008, when the well-traveled Cuban vocalist Felix Samuel joined the fold in time for the group’s blazing second album, Sonando Como un Cañón, earning avid international attention.
