Charanga Vallenata

**Charanga Vallenata**, led by Cuban-born bandleader Roberto Torres, is a vibrant musical project that fuses Cuban *charanga* traditions with Colombia’s *vallenato* roots. Known for blending flute, violins, and accordion-driven rhythms, the group creates a lively cross-cultural sound that’s perfect for dancing. Roberto Torres, a seasoned artist with ties to New York’s Latin music scene (and a former member of the Fania All-Stars family), has been mixing genres since the 1980s, earning a reputation for keeping folkloric styles fresh and party-ready.

Their releases, like *Caballo Viejo en vivo* and *Charanga En La Playa*, showcase their knack for reinventing classics while celebrating Latin America’s musical diversity. Whether delivering instrumental jams (*VIVA MI ECUADOR*) or upbeat collaborations, Charanga Vallenata stays true to its mission: getting feet moving and bridging genres with infectious energy.
