AYMAR TORRES

Drummer Daniel Camacho has been known for it: almost every month, this Aruban musician (Kuenta i Tambu) intruduces us to a new class artist. After having giving us the blues and rockabilly band Sugar Sugar, the singer Roxanne Hartog and the young blues man Nikos Tsop, he now brings his Antillian buddy Aymar Torres to the forefront. Unsurprisingly, this smooth collaboration works out effortlessly. Their dads actually used to playe together in a band. But the strenght of Torres’ show hinges on his abillity to fuse together the wide spectrum of South-American styles. Also, the fast that the frontman speaks Spanish, French, Portugese, Italian and Papiemento is vital. Because of this unique combination of skills, he is able to play everything from bossanova to samba, salsa, bolero, merengue and much, much more. He thereby is also not restricted to any era. With ease, he plays both 50s classics as recent hits. Oh, and he also plays various instruments. All of these factors make this a show that is not just a joy for fans of South-American music, but for everyone who enjoys a varied show that explores the genre diversity of an entire continent in a very tasteful way. Thought you knew latin? Check out Aymar, Daniel and bassist José Croeze and think again! On Wednesday the 5th, Sunday the 9th and Tuesday the 11th of September, these gentlemen are playing on our stage.
