A new project led by Cuban bass virtuoso and singer Dany Noel featuring one of the most profound Cuban pianists, Ivan Bridòn and Spanish drum/ percussion star, Jorge Pérez.

Dany Noel

Dany Noel was born in Cuba, with extensive experience in Latin jazz and flamenco. His curious soul keeps challenging the definition of genre, and empowers the use of technicality devoted to music.

At the age of 10 he started playing bass and double bass with many Cuban orchestras and artists of recognised national and international prestige like Pío Leyva and Omara Portuondo, members of “Buena Vista Social Club”, Ángel Bonnet, Eddy Gaytán, Xiomara Laugart, and has always been involved in numerous folk music and Latin jazz projects. In 2004, together with the well-known drummer Horacio “El Negro” Hernández, he founded ITALUBA, a quartet of which he is bassist, composer and arranger. Their record ITALUBA 1 won a Grammy nomination, in the same year, for best album in the Latin jazz category.

Ivan Bridòn Nàpoles

Ivan Bridòn was born Santiago de Cuba. Started his studies at the Esteban Salas conservatory in Santiago de Cuba, and then continued at the Professional school Josè White in Camaguey, Cuba. Graduate in percussion, he studied the piano as a complementary instrument. During his studies he felt a strong interest in the piano, harmony, orchestral conducting, so he deepened these subjects to make a professional career, today.

Jorge Pérez

Spanish born in Boston, U.S.A, Jorge Pérez is a performer, producer, composer, teacher and one of those atypical drummers/percussionists that are also the leaders and composers of their bands.

In 2008 he gets a scholarship form Berklee College of Music where is selected to be part of the elite group “Berklee Global Jazz Institute”, in which he studies with Danilo Perez, John Patitucci and Joe Lovano. He graduates in 2011 obtaining a mayor in Performance, and returns to Spain where he starts Patax, band with which we has released 8 albums up to date, blending flamenco, salsa, Funk, Rock, jazz and folk music.
