The Mamboleros have been together for 3 years. Their sound is born out of the musical styles and cultural roots of each individual member married with their love and belief in vintage musical styles. This creates a totally unique mix focusing on both the melodic and rhythmic dance elements of 40’s Rock-n-Roll, 50’s Mambo and Rockabilly and 60’s kitsch. Nothing is sacrosanct and no-one stays in their seat. The music centres around the breathtakingly magnificent voice of Ms. Prado. She uses her Classical Operatic training in divinely subtle ways to re-invent and improvise classics such as ‘Cha Cha La Negra’ and ‘Babalu’ as well as delivering remarkable original songs echoing the traditions of her native Chile. The band consists of 5 core members and features Drums, Percussion, Piano, Double Bass, Guitar and Horns. All have busy careers having performed with The Cinematic Orchestra, Charlie Palmieri, Somo Somo, Gloria Estaban, Ronnie Wood, Paloma Faith, The Polecats, George Michael, King Kurt, Des O’Connor, Tony Christie and Ray Charles amongst others.
