Sol y Canto

Sol y Canto is a Latin music ensemble known for bringing audiences into experiences of wide-ranging Latin cultures. Based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the group has sought for over two decades to create a beautiful and bold sound that does justice to the richness and diversity of Latin American music.

Their musical style fuses traditional Latin rhythms like rumba, salsa, and son with contemporary influences, giving a fresh and upbeat take on folk and popular traditions. But beyond just rhythm, their music often seems to exist to tell stories and share messages. This becomes apparent when they create children’s music, intermingling energetic rhythms and harmonic complexity together with thoughtful, playful lyrics that educate and entertain young listeners.

Sol y Canto’s music reflects a heartfelt commitment to convey the beauty, humor, and humanity inherent in the Latin American cultural treasure trove. Whether entrancing children or adults, their sound is engaging and deeply emotive.
