SAMMY GARCIA (PERCUSSIONIST)

In the world of the tropical music, Sammy is counted as one of the very best amongst such legendary performers as: Conjunto Clásico, Willie Colón, Gilberto Santa Rosa, Tito Nieves, Puerto Rican Power, Celia Cruz, Cheo Feliciano, Víctor Manuell, Olga Tañón, Elvis Crespo y Ricardo Arjona, just to name a few.

His professional experiences during his musical career, afforded him the opportunity to play in such great venues and events such as: Concerts in the Madison Square Garden, Aruba Jazz Festival, Feria de Calí, Festival de la Calle Ocho, New Orleans Jazz Festival, Carnaval de Panamá, Día Nacional de la Salsa y Congreso Mundial de la Salsa, among others. They serve as a strong center for his artistic foundation, entertaining diverse audiences around the world.

His artistic path has been split between being a musician and a director and this immersion into the craft has led him to be an innovator in the world of modern salsa music. This innovative vision is truly realized in his latest project "El Sabor De Puerto Rico", where under the direction of Sammy, never loses the "swing" and "cadence" of the traditional salsa music.
