Carambola!
Carambola is acoustic Caribbean and Brazilian with nuance and passion. The line-up includes violinist Benito Cortez (Dan Hicks and his Hot Licks), in-demand percussionist Stephen La Porta, and myself on the six and seven-string guitar (I do the bass lines too!). In addition to traditional styles, we also do some Bob Marley and Stevie Wonder. Carambola can play it cool at a formal event, or crank it up at a party or club.
