DESCRIPTION:Cuban singer and tres player, Tito Gonzalez y su son de Cuba will release 
 his third album "La Vida Te Da Sorpresas."  Come to celebrate the release 
 of this album with authentic Cuban music and some of the best Latin 
 musicians in the Bay Area. \n\ntraditional, high-energy Cuban dance 
 music\n$22 adv / $25 door\n\nHeriberto “Tito” Gonzales and his talented 
 band return to the Freight to play rumba, guaracha, and son—traditional, 
 high-energy Cuban dance music pioneered by greats like Arsenio Rodriguez 
 and later revived by the film The Buena Vista Social Club. A celebrated 
 musician and charismatic showman, Tito sings and plays the small Cuban 
 guitar with three sets of doubled strings known as the tres, driving the 
 music and the complex rhythms with delicacy and swagger. His current band 
 includes Miguel Martinez on flute, Julio de la Cruz on piano, David Frazier 
 on congas, Colin Douglas on timbal, Sandy Poindexter on violin and claves, 
 and Abo Gumroyan on bass.\n\nTito first learned the tres from his father in 
 Havana, but worked for years as a fisherman, an auto mechanic, and a cab 
 driver before forming a band with his fellow cabbies and becoming an 
 overnight Cuban sensation at the age of forty. He arrived in the Bay Area 
 more than a dozen years ago, and when he’s not playing onstage in his 
 trademark fedora, he’s passing along his skills to young musicians in 
 venues like Berkeley’s Jazzschool. Come out and enjoy Tito and his expert 
 band playing songs of heartache, love, tobacco, and rum with a seductive 
 Cuban beat!\n\nLa Vida Te Da Sorpresas\nhttps://youtu.be/NGOfk8N9J8U\n
