BANDA LATINA was formed in 1991, the time of the Lambada and Gipsy Kings, when dancing salsa and merengue was something probably never heard of before in NZ and the Latin American musical phenomena had not yet touched this part of the world.
"Banda Latina", which translated to English means Latin Band, increased the richness of their music by incorporating an exotic and lively percussion beat to their songs, and their style evolved progressively through time.
Banda Latina has just recorded their first CD album with their original compositions and arrangements, which we would like to launch to the NZ music market.

The late Don Cruz Lizárraga (born 1918, died 1995) was leading an early edition of el Recodo as far back as 1938, and after his death, Lizárraga's relatives kept the Mexican institution going.
