Three-time Grammy-nominated Tiempo Libre is one the hottest young Latin bands today. Equally at home in concert halls, jazz clubs, and dance venues, the members of the Miami-based band are true modern heirs to the rich tradition of the music of their native Cuba. Celebrated for their incendiary, joyful performances of a Cuban salsa music called “timba,” an irresistible, dance-inducing mix of high-voltage Latin jazz, and the seductive, Afro-Cuban rhythms of “son,” Tiempo Libre return to Columbus after headlining Festival Latino in 2009.
