The Yorkshire Latin Duo - Latin Duo
The Yorkshire Latin Duo have been working together as professional musicians since 2004 and are specialists in a few musical fields, such as Latin, Salsa, Brazilian music, jazz, party music, uplifting music for parties and weddings!
Based in Yorkshire, but often perform private events in London and the south, and will also happily consider Ireland, Scotland and Wales!
The Yorkshire Latin Duo are versatile enough to suit any event with their accessible, upbeat and rhythmic styles. They have a repertoire to suit all age ranges and tastes - whilst also able to specialise in Cuban, Latin and Brazilian styles and jazzy sounds.
They often get asked to play parties and celebrations where their love of playing music and large repertoire & experience means they are popular across ages and musical tastes!
Between the two musicians, they play several instruments and percussion, both sing and people often say we sound like a larger band than we are!
