Larry Vuckovich’s La Orquesta El Vucko, a non–typical Latin band with a twist, offers a wide ranging repertoire that goes beyond salsa. It includes Mexi-can classic boleros, South American favorites, Great American Standards played in Latin tempos, bebop classics with a Latin feel, Brazilian selections, World Music including Balkan Salsa, bluesy funky Boogaloo hits & more. Larry brings all of his varied experiences in forming La Orquesta El Vucko and mak-ing it a unique sounding Latin band. Soulful vocalist Jackie Ryan, whose mother was from Mexico, will sing some romantic Mexican boleros as well as standard classics in Latin rhythms. The king of timbales, Orestes Vilató, will add that special spark which will be enhanced by the excellent conguero/bonguero Hector Lugo, Noel Jewkes on flute and Jeff Chambers on bass.
