Mazacote
is a hard-hitting world latin party band playing brass soaked tropical dance beats. Inspired by the sounds of Colombia, Mozambique and Nicaragua, they weave driving rhythms and heavy groove with a socially conscious message. The band is set to release their 3rd album "Patria" set for release on Justin Time/Nettwerk in October 2019.
Performing together since 2009, Mazacote features the captivating voice of Nicaraguan singer/songwriter David Lopez and a groove-heavy rhythm section with Frankie Hidalgo on Bass, Chris Couto on Timbales, Robin Layne on Congas, Japanese pianist Niho Takase and jazz trumpeter Malcolm Aiken.
Mazacote performs across the globe at music festivals and dance clubs, bringing their world dance party vibes to audiences of all ages!
