I could not get over the pure talent of this group of musical purists. It is plain from the high level of talent of each member of this band that they are musical purists who have nothing but the deepest respect for their musical muse and talent.

In addition to being highly danceable, the music is a form of cultural sharing. Connie Grossman treats the world to her brilliant, flawless flute solos and the inclusion of other instruments makes for a rich listening experience. No doubt these talented performers will continue going places!

When I first heard of SonSublime it was on a marquee outside the Westgate Lounge, a popular Latin music and dance club in Westchester, New York, that my wife and I frequent whenever we get the urge to pachangiar (Cuban slang for major partying). I thought to myself, "Yeah - right...Sublime...how presumptuous." I've gotten so used to mediocre Latin bands that I expected more of the same. The moment SonSublime came on the stage and began playing we jumped to our feet and began to dance! Not since the golden years of Cuban music in the 1940's and 50's, with legends like La Orquesta Aragon, La Sonora Matancera and the late Jose Fajardo Sr. y Su Orquesta has there been a sound so sublime. Needless to say, we danced all night non-stop! On our way out we purchased their new CD entitled Bailando Con SonSublime at the door and played it all the way home in the car. The next day I went online and ordered their other CD offerings, Irresistible and Gran Reserva; again, the name says it all! This is music that you can listen to as well as dance to. The lyrics, the musical arrangements, the vocals, each individual instrument and above all, the truly superb, out of this world flute solos and accompaniments by Connie Grossman all combine into what is rightly entitled SonSublime. This band is destined for greatness - they already are great - all you have to do is listen and you'll agree!

Cuban music turns me on. Especially this very nice production by sexy Cuban singer Jesse Herrero. I saw SonSublime at S.O.B's and could not keep my eyes off this sexy Cuban man. I purchased their CD through Amazon.com and have not stopped playing it since I got it. It is awesome like the band!!! (...)
