Cimafunk is an Afro-Cuban funk groove maestro electrifying audiences around the world; he rocks the stage with his eight piece freight train of a band. Dynamic, intoxicating and born to boogie; the singer, composer/producer, offers a subtle and bold mix of funk with Cuban music and African rhythms. Cimafunk is a cimarrón*, a free being defying classification, a pilgrim in search of new musical miscegenation and the reunion of black music. He believes in nothing but the power of the Groove and the cathartic communion of dancing bodies. A renaissance man, conscious of his roots and musical ancestry, Cimafunk’s music looks firmly into the future. His debut album “Terapia” (Independent Production, 2017) put him on the Cuban music scene with a splash, including the single “Me Voy,” a major hit in Cuba and its catchy refrain, which is now part of pop culture and used by Cubans of all ages each time they depart somewhere. “El Alimento,” Cimafunk’s sophomore album, was released in October 2021 and includes collabs with U.S. funk and hip hop legends, leading Afro-Latino artists and some Cuban stars. Following a strong Summer 2021 European Tour, Cimafunk and his band will play over 20 dates in the U.S. in August, September and October.
