SUMMARY:COSMIC JIBAROS
DESCRIPTION:The Cosmic Jibaros have effectively changed the idea of a 
 typical Latin rock band. The band builds from Latin and Caribbean rhy
 thms, Rock guitars and World music influences for a sound that’s bot
 h cross-cultural and highly danceable. There’s an irresistible pull 
 of traditional Afro-Caribbean Beats, interplays between the congas and
  timbales mixed with urban elements in the deep drum and bass and effe
 cts-laden guitar work. These songs are laced with social and political
  overtones, and are sung primarily in Spanish by charismatic front man
  Ricardo Reyes.\n \nThe Cosmic Jibaros name reflects the blending fla
 vors of the Music they make. In Puerto Rico, los jibaros  would be so
 mething akin to the American ‘hillbillies’ or ‘mountain men’- 
 historically known for a more simple and honest connection to the eart
 h and the hard work of living, and with musical tradition to reflect t
 hat. The ‘cosmic’ part warns of a modern twist on the old traditio
 ns. Taking cues from a cross section of the world music and creating a
 n original, Latin progressive sound\nAs their bandleader Rick Reyes po
 ints out, “Young latinos today cross all cultural boundaries. They c
 arry with them the history and the culture of where their parents came
  from but at the same time have an open mind to what is happening now,
 ” he says. “You can’t be a part of this world without being infl
 uenced by it as you go. Our music is very much a product of the evolut
 ion of Latinos in the United States”. The Cosmic Jibaros reflect tha
 t and their first album, Yo Soy Del Mundo (I Am Of The World) tells th
 at story\n\n\"Still grounded in rock, but with a hypnotic rhythm, part
 ially sung in English and part sung in Spanish, The Cosmic Jibaros app
 eal to a wide audience who wants to feel, and not just hear, their mus
 ic.\" -Brita Brundage, Fairfield County Weekly\n \n“I felt like I w
 as somewhere between the old fania days and the future of Ozomatly”�
