The band’s popularity continued to grow with sell-out performances at Dublin’s Crawdaddy and The Sugar Club while the autumn saw Smash Hits! taking on the rest of the country with gigs and residencies in Galway, Cork, Limerick, Naas and Donegal.

songs to original compositions. As the name suggests its unique and full tempting Afro Caribbean world music innovating flavour.  Always a leader in his field, multitalented Tony Oscar has created and continues evolving a succulent mix of rhythms such as Rap, Funk, Hip-Hop, R&B, Merengue, Cha-cha-cha, and Afro-Cuban Jazz with Salsa. His newest K&B style (Reggaetton with Cuban flavour) has evolved into an exciting act that puts the audience to dance and sing and foremost has created a unique following. Most recently the band were seen supplying the entertainment on the final of the hit TV3 series ‘The Apprentice’.

Nephew of the latest ARAGON ORCHESTRA maestro Rafael Lay, one of the greatest Cuban Musician ever, Tony Oscar has been described as Europe’s answer to James Brown or even to Benny More, the 1950′s real Salsa King and his personal inspiration as a musician and as an artist.

The band itself dosent’ need any presentation. With heavyweights such as Master percussionist and ex teacher of the prestigious Cuban Art and Music Academy  Don Frailan, and top world class percussionist and DJ- Mr. Bongo, every show is unique and every presentation unforgetable; a mixture of rhythmic overtones with warm harmonies, romantic lyrics, and an urban feel that makes you tap your feet and sway to the rich sounds. Memorable hooks stay with you long after you’re done listening, the compositions move both body and spirit.

The band is also registered with the Arts-In-Education Program in Ireland. This consists of band members going to schools to showcase and explain the music, instruments and rhythms associated with their music.  As all musical talents with a purpose, they will continue to deliver their own brand of K&B, determined to keep us not only dancing, but expecting from them the same degree of excellence that they expect from themselves.

Tony Oscar & CUBAN ALL STARS is a celebration to music and dance, so join his musical Latin & Afro-Cuban Extravaganza!!

“I wanted to drop you a note to let you know the Cuban allstars were a huge success on Friday.  The band were fantastic, and both the committee and the guests were delighted with the performance.Thanks for all your help in the lead up – and the selection of such a great band – I look forward to booking them again”
