Guaschará is a group comprised of 2 trombones and tenor sax/flute, bass, conga, timbales and bongo. This group is the creation of percussionist Steve Guasch and precocious pianist and musician Julio Jáuregui. The group showcases the talent of young puertorican sonero Joe De Jesus. Guaschará presents a singable call that recalls the 70's sound of the Hellenic epoch of salsa, while staying current with modern and interesting arrangements that are influenced by elements of salsa and jazz. Our first CD "Influencias", features the status of percussionist Paoli Mejias and player Jeremy De Jesus of Puerto Rico. As well as the talents of venezuelan musicians Marcial Isturiz, Eliel Rivero and Jose Soto Mortadelo.
