Grupo Los Santos

Grupo los Santos has been together for over 20 years developing a strong following and individual sound, with a patented blend of Afro-Cuban, Brazilian, Flamenco and NYC Jazz influences; creating unique, original rumba, samba, and funky acoustic/electric music. Drawing from the traditional/folkloric music of the Americas, played with an open and spontaneous jazz sensibility, the band cuts a very atypical profile in New York's Jazz and Latin Jazz scene. The band's love and individual deep study of these musical traditions has born great fruits, both compositionally and in performance and execution. The sound is coherent, focused and intelligent-the music is both classic and forward-looking at the same time-and the expression is original, soulful, high-energy and transcendent of idiom.

Pamela Hetherington

Born: October 4, 1979

I am a jazz tap dancer, choreographer, educator, and artistic director working in Philadelphia. My work expands the boundaries of jazz tap. My choreography for the Philadelphia Jazz Tap Ensemble has been presented by Jazz Bridge (Neighborhood Concert), Philadelphia Jazz Project (7x7 Series), Creative Philadelphia (City Hall Presents), The Barnes Foundation (1st Sunday Series), Allentown Art Museum (3rd Thursday Series), Dixon Place (8 in Show, 30-30-30), and Symphony Space (Stam-Pede). I enjoy working in duo collaborations that fuse song, vocals, text and free jazz and permit me to direct the sound for my own voice. I strive towards new projects in tap music composition
