Since then, the band has become a regular part of Cincinnati’s jazz scene, known for its high-energy shows and fresh take on the Latin Jazz tradition.

 

The group features a talented lineup of musicians: Eric Lechliter (Trumpet), Colin Palmieri (Alto Saxophone), Eric Wurzelbacher (Tenor Saxophone), Chris Caporale (Bass), Matt McCalister (Drumset), and Zion Rose Sosa (Congas).

El Ritmo Del Mañana’s music is a wide variety of original tunes and arrangements written by members of the band. Their sound draws inspiration from artists like Michele Camilo all the way to Sivuca while adding their own creative spin. Recent highlights include sharing the stage with Jeff Hamilton and Walfredo Reyes Jr., as well as releasing their fourth studio album.

The band plays throughout the Midwest, bringing fun, exciting, and rhythm-driven performances wherever they go—all while living up to their name: The Rhythm of Tomorrow.
