Pablo Aragona Quinteto

Originally from Buenos Aires, Argentina, drummer and multi-instrumentalist Pablo Aragona has been touring and recording since 2008 with artists and musicians from all over the world.
He created the Pablo Aragona Quintet in 2016 and after a few years playing in different venues around the Buenos Aires music scene he decided to record en EP called “Baco”.
In 2021, Pablo put together the quintet again, but this time with some of the best local musicians in the Orlando music scene. They recorded a second EP in 2022 entitled “Yikes” and in 2023, they had many concerts across Florida, and released a live album recorded at the Blue Bamboo Center for the Arts in Orlando.
The Pablo Aragona Quintet is known for the improvisational skills of its members and the ability to create a unique sound that blends together influences from Latin American music, tango, soul, jazz, funk, and classical music. The Quintet brings to every performance an adventurous spirit, eclectic palette, and gift for spontaneous invention.
A native of Buenos Aires, Argentina, Pablo pays homage to the capital city of Tango music in his performances. As part of the repertoire, the Quintet performs an arrangement of two compositions by the great Argentinian Tango composer Astor Piazzolla, "Libertango" and "Adios Nonino.”
The Pablo Aragona Quintet just participated in the Jacksonville Jazz Festival sharing the stage with major artists such as Stanley Clarke, Chucho Valdez, and Joss Stone.
