The Cuban All Stars are the perfect latin band for hire for corporate events and wedding receptions. They are the only 100% real live Cuban band in Ireland. The band´s tight sound draws from old rhythms to the latest latin mix influence filtered through the multicultural energy of Europe. Its repertoire ranges from traditional Cuban songs to original compositions.
The result – as the name suggests – is hot and penetrates the senses with its unique and full tempting Afro Caribbean world music innovating flavour. Always a leader in his field, multitalented Tony Oscar has created and continues evolving a succulent mix of rhythms such as Rap, Funk, Hip-Hop, R&B, Merengue, Cha-cha-cha, and Afro-Cuban Jazz with Salsa. His newest K&B style (Reggaetton with Cuban flavour) has evolved into an exciting act that puts the audience to dance and sing and foremost has created a unique following. Most recently the band were seen supplying the entertainment on the final of the hit TV3 series ‘The Apprentice’.
Nephew of the latest ARAGON ORCHESTRA maestro Rafael Lay, one of the greatest Cuban Musicians ever, Tony Oscar has been described as Europe’s answer to James Brown or even to Benny More, the 1950′s real Salsa King and his personal inspiration as a musician and as an artist.
The band itself dosent’ need any presentation. With heavyweights such as Master percussionist and ex teacher of the prestigious Cuban Art and Music Academy Don Frailan, and top world class percussionist and DJ- Mr. Bongo, every show is unique and every presentation unforgetable; a mixture of rhythmic overtones with warm harmonies, romantic lyrics, and an urban feel that makes you tap your feet and sway to the rich sounds. Memorable hooks stay with you long after you’re done listening, the compositions move both body and spirit.
The band is also registered with the Arts-In-Education Program in Ireland. This consists of band members going to schools to showcase and explain the music, instruments and rhythms associated with their music. As all musical talents with a purpose, they will continue to deliver their own brand of K&B, determined to keep us not only dancing, but expecting from them the same degree of excellence that they expect from themselves.
Tony Oscar & CUBAN ALL STARS is a celebration to music and dance, so join his musical Latin & Afro-Cuban Extravaganza!!

I wanted to drop you a note to let you know the Cuban allstars were a huge success on Friday. The band were fantastic, and both the committee and the guests were delighted with the performance.
Thanks for all your help in the lead up – and the selection of such a great band.
I look forward to booking them again
Thanks again!

I just wanted to drop you a quick mail (sitting in Heathrow waiting for a flight to Hong Kong) to thank you guys for a fantastic service at our wedding from beginning to end. I know that I mentioned before how easy it was to deal with but I have to say that the quality of the advice and the acts that you provided only served to further heighten our opinion of your company.
The suggestion of the acoustic Cuban band for the drink reception was inspired and a really talking point of the wedding. Kay Lynch and David Wray absolutely lifted the roof of the church with their performance. The Swing Band kept the dance floor filled all night (and made Maura cry with joy as they nailed her first song) and the Dj played every song we asked for to the extent that a number of people got over excited and actually fell over dancing (alcohol may have contributed to this).
Suffice to say we had a day where absolutely NOTHING went wrong and that was in no small part to your professionalism and assistance.Thank you so much for all your help and I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending you to anyone who asks,
Best Regards
David and Maura
P.S. I have attached a picture of a very happy couple
