David Calzado y su Charanga Habanera
David Calzado y su Charanga Habanera are Cuban music legends who’ve been setting dance floors on fire since forming in Havana in 1988. Led by violinist David Calzado, this timba powerhouse became one of Cuba’s most explosive bands in the 1990s, blending traditional charanga instrumentation (flutes, violins) with modern salsa, funk, and hip-hop energy. Nicknamed "La Charanga que Baila el Cubano" (The Charanga That Makes Cubans Dance), they’re known for razor-sharp horn sections, call-and-response vocals, and lyrics that mix humor with social commentary.
Recent tracks like *Subiendo la Parada* and *Fuiste Tú* prove they’ve kept their signature swagger, while live albums like *Charanga Habanera 1 (Live)* capture their legendary stage energy. Though lineup changes have occurred over the decades, their commitment to making unstoppable dance music remains – whether through cheeky romantic bops (*Los Besos Que Te Di*) or playful collabs (*Ese hombre es mio*). A staple of Cuba’s timba movement, they’ve influenced generations of Latin artists while staying true to their “street orchestra” roots.
