Hollywood, CA.—Noted percussionist and bandleader Louie Cruz Beltran returns to Catalina's Jazz Club January 27th to perform a special tribute to three influential figures in the history of Latin Jazz—Mongo Santamaria, Willie Bobo, and Cal Tjader. Beltran, whose high energy showmanship draws from a rich variety of jazz, R&B and pop influences, has long admired and been inspired by these three iconic figures. The show will feature their music, and will shed light on their lives and careers.

He just performed the New Year's Eve show at Las Ventanas al Paraiso in Los Cabos, Mexico, and this past summer was the opening artist at the Society of Singers Ella Awards ceremony honoring Natalie Cole, sharing the stage with Gladys Knight, Dave Koz, and Patti Austin.
