Pimienta delivers a spicy blend of Latin jazz that sizzles with rhythm and soul! For over a decade, the Ottawa-based group have been digging deep into the Latin jazz repertoire, pulling out overlooked gems, and adding their own flavour to Cuban, Brazilian, and Latin classics. Pimienta’s high-energy repertoire, innovative arrangements, and infectious grooves have been winning the group rave reviews and getting audiences out of their seats.
