About gregoriouribeGregorio Uribe Big Band is a 15-piece band that plays Gregorio's orginal songs as well as his arrangements of Colombian traditional music. Born in Bogota, Colombia Gregorio started his musical life at a young age when he began playing drums and guitar.
Currently he is living in New York. The band is inspired on the old "Porro" bands that where once lead by the legendary Lucho Bermudez and Pacho Galan but it also incorporates harmonies and arrangements of different contemporary styles.
The Big Band project brings together musicians from 6 countries around the world that under Gregorio Uribe’s leadership and vision create a masterpiece of Latin rhythms.
Uribe brought his vision to create a band that blended funk and jazz with the intriguing folkloric rhythms of his native Colombia. His band brings new and modern arrangements to Latin music that can be compared to Second-Line Bands from New Orleans. His energetic and intelligent approach to the music of Colombia has led him to share the stage with such renowned artists as the six-time Grammy-winner Rubén Blades and Latin Grammy Award-winners Aterciopelados.
Uribe was born in Bogotá, Colombia, and started his musical life playing drums and guitar in traditional Colombian music and rock bands. Today, his music reflects the energy of his teenage years, the love for his country and a unique passion for life. Bringing to life a danceable beat with a touch of romanticism into each one of his songs - songs that inspire love and plenty of sabrosura.
