TITANS, LEADING WITH THE EXHILARANT SINGLE "A MI ME ESTÁ "
Performance Slated at Miami’s El Tucán March 10th Miami, FL, February 3, 2016 (http://www.marlowrosado.com)-‐ GRAMMY® and Latin GRAMMY Award® winning pianist, producer, performer, composer and orchestra director, Marlow Rosado announces the new concept album collaboration with icon, Larry Harlow, Harlow Marlow Volume 1, a namesake melodic crusade devised to secure the legacy of “Salsa Dura” (hardcore Salsa). Recorded in Miami, each of the album’s eight tracks were penned by Puerto Rican born Marlow Rosado and co-‐produced with Latin GRAMMY® Lifetime Achievement honoree, Larry Harlow, globally coined as “El Judio Maravilloso” (The Marvelous Jew), serves as a musical passing of the torch. Marlow Rosado, who scored the 2013 GRAMMY AWARD® for Best Tropical Latin Album, and Larry Harlow, also a GRAMMY® winner, definitively one of the cornerstones of the history of Salsa and The Fania All-‐Stars sound (“the Motown Records of Salsa”), both explode on the ivories. The record steeped in the Afro-‐Cuban and Latin jazz tradition, is highlighted with impressive hard salsa piano duets and seasoned with guest vocalists, José Arroyo, a soloist featured on Marlow’s previous three albums and the lead singer of Orchestra Harlow, Luisito Rosario, who is featured on the album’s first single, “A Mi Me Está”.
Harlow’s dynamic composition complements the polyrhythmic and infectious style of Marlow’s colossal force. While Harlow is regarded as one of the most gifted Latin music pianists of all-‐time, Rosado undoubtedly forged a reputation as a legendary artist in his own right, having dedicated his life to inspiring audiences both young and mature to the stellar tunes of hard-‐hitting salsa. Marlow Rosado has worked with a diverse repertoire of artists including the cherished Tejana icon, Selena Quintanilla, megawatt star, Ricky Martin, Songwriters Hall of Fame pillar, Desmond Child, and chart-‐topping Mexican rocker, Alejandra Guzmán, to Puerto Rican Merengue Queen, Olga Tañón, among other influential musicians. This is Marlow Rosado’s fourth album and first recording with new material in over a decade for Larry Harlow, an epic studio return for this artist who has over fifty records under his belt. “I had a chance to collaborate with Larry Harlow on many stages and projects over the years. Harlow Marlow Volume 1 is my way of saying thank you for inspiring me, for what you’ve done for Latin music and the opportunity for us to simply jam the way real salsa heads do ”, added Rosado, on working with his mentor, collaborator and friend. The critically-‐praised duo will electrify the city of Miami with their musical prowess during an exclusive March 10th performance at Marlow Rosado’s venue of residency, El Tucán-‐-‐a sophisticated cabaret that echoes Cuba’s influence on Hollywood’s golden era, often frequented by notables such as Will Smith.
