“One of the best large Latin Ensembles in the Continental USA.” - Latinjazz.net

Recognized as a global phenomenon, Grammy® Award-winning Latin Big Band Pacific Mambo Orchestra’s (PMO) original and ingenious repertoire is spiked with infectious energy and superb musicianship. PMO effortlessly blends genre-bending originals and covers as diverse as Stevie Wonder’s ‘Overjoyed’, Dizzy Gillespie’s ‘Night in Tunisia’ and Sergei Rachmaninoff’s 2nd Piano Concerto into the easily recognizable PMO sound! The Orchestra has garnered international praise at prestigious festivals including the Montreux Jazz Festival (Switzerland), Tempo Latino Festival (France), Umbria Jazz Festival (Italy), Antigonish Jazz Festival (Canada), Mexico City’s 5th Annual Tribute to Salsa along with numerous appearances at other top-notch festivals such as Monterey Jazz Festival, San Francisco International Jazz Festival, Jacksonville Jazz Festival, Aspen Jazz Festival and many more.
