Kwasi Bruni
Kwasi Bruni is an Afro-Cuban big band project led by bassist Barry Hill and Colombian Piano maestro Camilo Losada.
Barry has been quiet on the local band scene since he left live drum and bass legends “The Bird” and his seminal chill-out trio “amphibian stopped gigging.
Barry met Camilo at a BBQ jam session in 2021 and had an instant musical connection. Both had Colombian family connections and had grown up listening to salsa and Afro-Cuban music.
Both were keen to put a band together.
Fast forward three years, and Kwasi Bruni is now a nine (sometimes 12!) piece big band featuring some of the north coast’s finest percussionists and wind players.
After honing their sound at a series of wild pub gigs in the hills around Lismore and playing an epic closing set at this year’s Nimbin Mardigrass, Kwasi Bruni brings their deep Afro-Cuban dance groove that pays homage to Cachao Lopez Mongo Santa Maria, Eddie Palmieri and the other greats of the Latino music tradition.
Not to be missed.
