Timba Time

Claves, bongos, and trumpets collide to create the jubilant musical medley that is timba. Coming into fruition in the late ‘80s with NG La Banda's bombastic rhythm and horn section and Los Van Van's larger-than-life choruses, this irresistible Cuban genre can make even the most repressed square get up and dance. So put that mojito down, because it's timba time.
