Ray Santiago, Latin Up - Ray Santiago Afro Cuba A La New York City
...............
His style has been described as: "A saxophonist with an unusual turn of phrase, a
persuasively gentle sound and jazz allegiances, he is at the same time a distinctive
improviser." So far Yaacov excelled the most in tenor sax, but also loves playing alt sax and
flute. He's been working regularly in New York City Metropolitan Area and despite of being
busy performing he maintains a commitment to teaching and has been invited to teach at
various musical schools. Born and brought up in Moscow City, Russia, Yaacov began playing
professionally in the clubs of his hometown, before relocating first to Israel in 1992 and then
to The United States in 2001. He has graduated from Rubin Academy in Jerusalem City,
Israel, in 2000. His early roots as a musician lie in cello before taking up the saxophone at the
age 14 and hitting the professional circuit just a year later, when in 1990 he joined the big
band "A.O.Canavalov." He immersed himself in a huge variety of musical genres since then,
but Jazz has been his prime musical passion. He consumed the different styles of Charley
Parker, John Coltrane and Thelonious Monk, put his own spin on them and was noted for a
highly personal manner. By now, Yaacov has established quite a reputation for himself on the
jazz scene with wide repertoire' and experience from blues to bebop and to salsa. In Israel,
he has played with bands such as Blues Band J.J. More, has appeared with musicians like
Leonid Ptashka and Yitzhak Yedid, participated in Red Sea Jazz Festival-1998, Jazz Festival
in Jerusalem-2000, and Jazz Festival In Ashdod-2001, 2009. In The States, he has
participated in Latino American Festival in New York City-2003, NY Haiti Jazz Festival
2009, Massachusetts Jazz Festival 2005, and Connecticut Jazz Festival 2006 and
worked with bands of Ray Santiago and Rico Tumba, and musicians such as Bany Golson,
George V Johnson Jr , Avishai Cohen, Valery Ponamarev, Miki Hayama, Paul Brown, Bob
Meyer and many others. On the more commercial side of things, he has toured Philadelphia,
PA, Massachusetts, MA, Atlantic City, NJ. Birdland, Blue Note, Smalls, Apollo Theater,
Carnegie Hall, 55Bar, Smoke, Le-Club and festivals, such as JVC Jazz Festival,
Playboy Jazz Festival, Red Sea Jazz Festival, Russian International Jazz
Festival, Heineken Jazz Festival, NY Latin Jazz Festival, NY Haiti Jazz Festival,
Massachusetts Jazz Festival and Connecticut Jazz Festival.
He has led a number of small groups with young musicians and now is the first choice saxophonist for
many visiting musicians. Being an intelligent and educated musician who likes to experiment with
different variety of music, Yaacov writes his own compositions that reflect his feelings and gives
unique interpretation of the world around him. He improvises in the endless world that is called
MUSIC. He has participated in the number of records and his own debut CD with his group:Vadim
Neselovsky,Miki Hayama,Alex Sipiagin ,Boris Kozlov,Aleksandra Mogilevich ,and many more…

A Brew of Latin/World-Beat, Contemporary Funk, Soul Rhythms. English/Spanish Lyrics.
Omar Alexander is a new generation U.S. Latin music artist virtuoso - a singer,
songwriter, composer and musician with a Latin gypsy funk rock sound. Born to a
Colombian mother and East Indian father, Omar Alexander is a fierce Bohemian
warrior-poet representing a bilingual, multicultural U.S. Latino generation
optimistically defining itself on its own terms. Omar Alexander falls within the
recent powerful wave of U.S. Latin and first generation immigrant artists, who grew
up influenced by Latin, American and world music.

vocals) keep the uptown Latin flavor authentic, Rich Chapple (bass) and Pablo
Vergara's (keyboards/ backing vocals) add just the right mix of jazz and R&B to
keep things interesting. Omar Alexander’s soulful, bilingual vocals pack a punch
in both Spanish and English. Individually, members of SOULARE have shared
stages and studios with a host of salsa, rock, jazz, Latin and R&B greats, including:
Maceo Parker, Bruce Springsteen, Slash, Jose Alberto ‘El Canario’, Norah Jones,
Jorge Moreno, Groove Collective, Alejandro Fernandez, DLG, Will Lee, Frankie
Negron, Bobby Sanabria, Gerardo Velez (Chic, Spyro Gyra, The Band of Gypsies),
Victor Manuelle, Tito Rojas, La India, Gloria Estefan and Antibalas.
Omar Alexander’s powerful, rough, melodic gypsy-like voice developed from his
lifelong exposure to his grandmother’s and father’s Sufi and Hindu devotional
music (notably Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and Hari Om Sharan), not a coincidence
given that Spain’s gypsies trace part of their roots back to India. His mother’s
musica llanera Colombiana - a type of Colombian folk music from the countryside
where she was born - exposed him to its own brand of poignant poetry. From his
much older siblings, Omar Alexander grew up with 70’s sounds, from soul and
funk music, to rock anthems, to the early fathers of salsa and nuevo flamenco.
Artists of conscience and heart are the ones that continue to influence him to this
day: Stevie Wonder, Earth, Wind and Fire, Santana, Eddie Palmieri, Hector Lavoe,
Joe Arroyo, Oscar d’León, Arturo Sandoval, Jose Alberto “El Canario”, Paco de
Lucía, El Camarón de la Isla and later, Prince, Seal and U2. Pull every single one of
these diverse influences together, and you have the explosive sound that is Omar
Alexander y Soulare.
