Sonidos explores the power and influence of sound across the African diaspora and the Americas, weaving together my Panamanian, Montserratian, and Caribbean roots with the traditions of jazz and Latin jazz. The record blends original compositions with imaginative arrangements of standards, each piece reinterpreting heritage, resilience, and identity through improvisation and collective artistry.
