Two-time Juno award winner Cuban Soul Rock artist Alex*Cuba is on the vanguard. Crafting a cross-cultural sound of sweet melodies, pop-soul hooks and rock chords, Cuba is redefining the notion of what Cuban music is. Not tied to tradition, this Cuban-Canadian prefers his vintage Gibson over el sencerro (cowbell) anytime.

Cuba’s latest release, Alex*Cuba, features surprising new grooves, innovative electric guitar inflections and varying tempos and structures. The album is an important step in Alex*Cuba’s ongoing musical revolution. “If You Give Me Love”, Cuba's first-ever song in English, was recently serviced to radio, video and online outlets in Canada. With a heart as big as his retro 'fro, Cuba takes it all in stride and focuses on what he does best: crafting songs that cut through linguistic and cultural barriers like a machete through sugarcane.

"Best Performance: Alex*Cuba.” – National Post

"Staying true to his Spanish-language folk-funk-rock hybrid has paid off." – Billboard Magazine
