Cuban band JJ Son con Idabelis is touring NSW until the end of November. The quartet is playing at construction sites, organised by the Construction Forestry Mining Energy Union (CFMEU), cultural festivals and solidarity concerts supporting the trapped Chilean miners, political prisoners in Colombia and against the Cuban blockade.
Lead singer Idabelis Vaillan, band leader Jose Angel Garcia on guitar, Juan Bautista Fuentes on guitar and Jorge Ferrier on percussion and voice hail from Santiago de Cuba, cultural capital of Afro-Caribbean Cuba. JJ Son con Idabelis was formed in 2000 to play son, the traditional music of Cuba.
JJ Son con Idabelis' tour is supported by the NSW CFMEU construction and general division. For show details, see the calendar here.
