JAZZ LATINO @ GALERIA WEST Latin Rock & Jazz with THE JOE TAINO BAND in Concert
Image a cozy concert venue where, on the last Friday of each month you are surrounded by inspiring fine art as you enjoy an intimate concert experience with the best of Latin jazz & more from NYC and beyond. Teatro Si brings to you the popular monthly Jazz Latino @ Galeria West concert series. On Friday, June 24, 2016 at 7:30pm the series continues with acclaimed Latin rock and jazz guitarist Joe Taino and his Band as they take the stage at the unique Galeria West Art & Music Gallery, located at 111 Quimby Street in downtown Westfield, NJ.
Joe is joined on stage by veteran music artists; drummer Noel Sagerman, Ivan Bodley on bass, John Pittas on keyboards, and the acclaimed Raphael Cruz on congas.
Grammy award winner Raphael Cruz is probably the best kept secret in Latin jazz. Raphael has long been recognized by his fellow musicians as a gifted percussionist and bandleader, possessor of exquisite sensitivity and impeccable timing, a veteran who has shared both the stage and the recording studio with such legendary performers as Mongo Santamaría, Ray Barretto, George Benson, Paquito DRivera, Herbie Mann, McCoy Tyner, Bette Midler, Flora Purim and Chaka Khan.
Joe Taino is a veteran guitarist and has been doing what he does for a long time. Joe says that he became interested in music after watching the Beatles' movie A Hard Day's Night, when he was nine years old and growing up in Puerto Rico. He got his first guitar when he was eleven and says that he started learning "everything he could get his hands on." His early influences were the Beatles, Elvis, The Monkeys, Cream, Jimi Hendrix and Santana, to name a few.
Taino has been recording and performing since 1972. He has shared the stage with a host of notable artists, including Peter Frampton, Judas Priest, Rick Derringer, Cindy Lauper, Gregg Allman, Carlos Santana, Jaco Pastorious, Johnny Winter, Robin Trower, Pat Travers, King Crimson, and many more. He is one of the hottest and most respected guitarists in the business and still performs every week. His recent Incognito release is a mix of all of his influences, tinged with a distinctly Latin jazz flavor.
On August 4, 2013 Joe Taino was inducted into the NYC Blues Hall of Fame at BB King's Blues club in NYC. It was a great show with Michael Packer; Jon Paris; Gabriel Butterfield; Danny and Jonathan Kalb; Bobby Harden; Rob Papparozzi; Christine Santelli; Matt Mousseau; Hap Moore and many more.....
Joe has also recorded for many commercials including Dial Soap, 7-UP and Schafer Beer. He has frequently toured Europe, Japan, Brazil and the Caribbean and plays continuously in the tri-state area . He can be seen at the best music clubs as well as major Festivals.
Also enjoy the current art exhibition at Galeria West Art & Music Gallery. The mixed media fine art works by artist EVS are on display along with works by local & international fine artists.
