Renowned salsa band 8 y Más is scheduled to perform on Thursday, July 5 at 7:00 pm in St. Mary’s Park, The Bronx (New York). The ensemble will present their Tribute to Tito Puente.

8 y Más is one of the hottest new bands on the contemporary Latin music scene today in the United States. Comprised of a team of internationally recognized musicians considered by many to be some of the best in New York City, 8 y Más boasts a stellar lineup including Bobby Allende, Angel Fernandez, Ricky Gonzalez and Marc Quiñones.
