From sold-out tours, festival spots and support slots for rock royalty to crazy club nights, film roles, fashion shows to playing the Cheese and Grain’s very own 20th Birthday bash, The Cuban Brothers’ unparalleled act is ingrained in pop culture. Two decades since their inception, Miguel and his suspect sidekicks are renowned the world over for their party-starting skills, risqué sketches, B-boy moves and funk-fuelled music.
The Cuban Brothers may be a comedy act, but they’re simultaneously serious musicians who have played with Prince, been on the road with James Brown and supported Fatboy Slim, Chuck Berry and De La Soul.
The Shingalings are a Bristol-based dance act blending Latin, Soul, Funk, and Boogaloo into a riot of rhythm and energy. With “super infectious energy” (BBC Music Introducing) and a sound that’s “nailed that ’60s New York Boogaloo sound” (Craig Charles, BBC 6 Music), they bring the party with feel-good piano hooks, raw and soulful horn lines, rapturous vocals, and, of course, those irresistible Latin beats.
