TAKE PART IN PRODUCING OUR UPCOMING DEBUT ALBUM

This is old news now (originally posted on May 11, 2010) but I'll be updating you here very soon on our debut album project which is turning out spectacularly well. We can't wait to show everyone.

We'll be starting a new KickStarter campaign soon to move production along on the full release. Please pledge whatever amount you can. Receive some great perks (like the band will take YOU out to a great lunch at Superfine or perform at your next party for free!) and help us make this great album project a reality.

Already the first four singles are finished and released on Nganga Records. To hear the first four singles off of the new album -- and download them for free! -- just click here.

Enjoy the new tracks and stay tuned. We have lots more on the way soon!

Ulises, Pepito, Sebastian, Carlos, Mauricio and Oscar

Conjunto Guantanamo at Soundworks for Nganga Records

We've finally begun production and sat in the studio last month to begin recording our new debut album. Pepito, Pedro, Sebastian, Mauricio, Oscar and myself laid down the basic tracks to a few new songs that will be going into our new album which we want to have ready by the Fall. We're recording it at Soundworks Recording Studio in Queens with my favorite engineer, Kamilo Kract. I'm so happy to also have my friend the tres player Pablo Moya on as our producer. He did such a great job on our first session the other night. What an ear! Pablo and I are on the same page with our goals for this project so I really expect it to be a great finished product. Look out for our CD release party this fall.

Recently I heard about the Web sight called KickStarter that provides a good way for a band to raise funds for a recording project by having them offer incentives to their fans for pledging donations to the project and making them directly involved in the the final product. To see our project page, please follow this link and take a look - Please click this link to see our project's page on KickStarter. Please pledge as soon as you can  because the official deadline to reach our pledge goal is June 15 at 10:00pm EDT. DON'T FORGET, KickStarter has an all or nothing policy which means every Kickstarter project must be fully funded before its time expires or no money changes hands. Our project will only be funded if we meet our pledge goal by the deadline. KickStarter uses the Amazon Payments system which means if we fail to meet our funding goal in time, our backers pay nothing at all, all pledges are cancelled and that's that.

There are a variety of different pledge levels starting from just $5 so there's probably a level you might want to participate at. Come have fun and be a part of our production team to make this album a reality.
