Four Fridays of Salsa w/ Henry Bravo

Hey familia, we continue our 'Four Fridays in' residency in March with four fridays of Salsa featuring plenty of live percussion across communities & collectives exploring sounds & regions across the Latin diaspora 🌶️

Henry Bravo is a Venezuelan percussionist, DJ, and dancer, who has been based in the UK since 2008. His work is deeply rooted in Latin and Afro-Caribbean traditions, using rhythm and movement as a way to connect cultures and tell stories through music.

He has performed at major festivals including Notting Hill Carnival, South Bank Festival, Carnaval del Pueblo, and Glastonbury Festival, and has shared stages at iconic London venues such as Ronnie Scott’s, Jazz Cafe, and PizzaExpress Live.

Using Latin music as a common thread, Henry takes audiences on a rhythmic journey tracing the roots of modern Latin music — from African rhythms through genres such as Guaracha, Danzón, Cha-cha-chá, Bolero, Son Montuno, Mambo, Merengue, Plena, and Timba, all the way to what we now know as Salsa.

His performances are driven by the drum as the source of rhythm, energy, and expression, with the aim of transmitting joy, cultural identity, and connection through music and dance.
