The Williamsburg Salsa Orchestra is a thrilling 11-piece salsa group which plays dynamic, dura arrangements of indie & alt rock tunes we love. This is innovative, astonishing salsa with a new, vibrant aesthetic. With an ever-evolving set list that includes songs by Arcade Fire, TV On The Radio, Spoon, M83, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Black Keys, and many more, the WSO has taken the typical salsa form and infused it with a completely modern identity. The explosive arrangements have established the band as a groundbreaking force in the New York underground, and has led to international acclaim for its completely new approach to the genre.
DIALECTICA, the second album from 2018, solidifies the WSO's impact on the salsa genre and branches out to include songs from the 'alternative' genre by The Cure and Fiona Apple, as well as two originals and 7 more jaw-dropping arrangements of songs by Alabama Shakes, Animal Collective, The White Stripes, The Black Keys, Japanther, WAVVES, and Raul Midón.
The Debut Album was instantly recognized by writers and DJs throughout the world as a document which resets the boundaries of the art form and has the potential to bring the music to new audiences around the globe.
Led by percussionist/arranger Gianni Mano (from the Latin-funk legends Radio Mundial) and featuring the voice of Argentine star Solange Prat, the WSO has found an audience among new and classic salsa lovers, quickly becoming one of the most popular bands in New York City.
