Tumbaito // Live Afro-latin Grooves at Grow

Formed in 1994 by a Venezuelan percussionist who has recorded for the likes of Bjork and Goldie. Williams Cumberbatch and his band of highly decorated musicians are dedicated to showing the tough urban face of Latin music in the UK.

Being well versed in the history of dance music on both sides of the Atlantic has led to him re imagining Detroit House classics with a Latin Jazz Funk edge, from artists such as Moodymann at a headline show at Jazz Cafe in 2018!...
