Orquesta Akokan tour

Experience Latin Jazz's Breakout Sensation Live with TicketPurchase.com

Performer Information

Orquesta Akokán has quickly become one of Latin jazz’s most talked-about acts. Formed in 2016 between Havana and New York, the big-band ensemble channels classic Cuban mambo with modern vibrancy—catch them on the Orquesta Akokan tour to feel that energy up close. Led by Cuban vocalist José “Pepito” Gómez with pianist-arranger Michael Eckroth and producer-guitarist Jacob Plasse, they unite top Havana horn players and a world-class rhythm section for an electrifying live sound.

Their self-titled debut album, Orquesta Akokán (2018), earned a Grammy nomination for Best Tropical Latin Album, drawing praise from NPR and leading music outlets for its authenticity and fire. The follow-up, 16 Rayos (2021), deepened their Afro-Cuban palette with bold arrangements, lush horns, and driving percussion. From record to stage, Orquesta Akokán celebrates the golden era of mambo while pushing it forward.

Onstage, they’re built for movement—horns blaze, percussion grooves, and Gómez’s charismatic vocals bring the room together. You’ll find them lighting up theaters, jazz clubs, and major festivals, where dance floors fill fast and encores come easy. Fans love the high-energy flow, extended solos, and irresistible rhythms that keep the party going all night.
