KCC PRODUCTIONS PRESENTS FELIPE LAMOGLIA AT ZINC BAR MARCH 8
Miami, FL, February 1, 2012: KCC Productions and Zinc Bar present Grammy-winning saxophonist Felipe Lamoglia, March 8 at 9 PM. Born and educated in Cuba, he is a graduate of the prestigious Superior Institute of Art (ISA).
In 1999 Lamoglia relocated to the U.S. where he immediately began performing with the late Celia Cruz. In 2001 he began playing with Grammy winner Arturo Sandoval, performing all over the world and recording on Trumpet Evolution, as well as two DVD releases: Live at the Blue Note NYC and Live at the Ann Arbor Summer Festival. In 2004 he joined Grammy winner Gonzalo Rubalcaba, recording on his Grammy-nominated album, Paseo (Blue Note). In 2006 Lamoglia arranged and played on Ignacio Berroa's debut album Codes, also released on Blue Note and nominated for a Grammy. In 2007 Felipe contributed as arranger, performer, and composer for Arturo Sandoval's Grammy-winning album, Rumba Palace.
Throughout the years he has continued to develop his solo work and in 2007 released his first solo CD, Dimensions, recorded in Brazil. This album incorporated Felipe's Afro-Cuban roots with a blend of Brazilian music and straight-ahead jazz. He is currently promoting his quintet, Afro-Cuban Beats.
Felipe has shared the stage with musical giants such as Herbie Hancock, Michael Brecker, Wynton Marsalis, Eldar Djangirov, Dafnis Prieto, Ignacio Berroa and many others, participating in Major Jazz Festivals in the U.S. and abroad including JVC, Playboy, Newport, Henieken Jazz, Red Sea and in venues such as Blue Note, Iridium, Jazz Standard, Yoshi's, Dizzy's Club Coca Cola and many more.
Accompanying Felipe are Manuel Valera on piano ("destined to play a role in the future of jazz"- Billboard), Ludwig Afonso on drums (Spyro Gyra, Eldar Djangirov), John Benitez, bass ("the greatest bass player in the world"- Eddie Palmieri) and Master Percussionist Mauricio Herrera.
