RUBENS SANTANA, basse electrique (brésil)
Rubens Santana est définitivement un artiste curieux de tous les styles musicaux.
Au cours de sa carrière il accompagne tant des artistes de world music que des artistes de variété française tels que Axel Bauer ou Catherine Lara sans jamais perdre contact avec son Brésil natal, aux côtés notamment de Baden Powell et Tania Maria. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lukmil Perez Herrera, batterie. Né à la Havane le 10 septembre 1970, Lukmil Perez Herrera étudie la batterie dès 11 ans à la « Escuala Elemental de Arte » avec le batteur de Irakere, Enrique Pla. Dès lors il se passionne pour le jazz. A la fin de ses études il intègre des groupes tels que : « Banda JV », « Perspectivas » et surtout « Havana Ensemble », ex-Irakere, où se sont croisés tous les grands jazzmen cubains contemporains et avec qui il fait ses premières tournées internationales : Etats Unis, Amérique Centrale et du Sud, Europe.
En 1999, après avoir enregistré avec le jeune pianiste virtuose Tony Perez, il décide de s’installer en Europe pour develloper sa carrière individuelle. Il participe à plusieurs projets comme celui du trompettiste Mario Morejon « el indio », le bassiste Felipe Cabrera, la chanteuse jazz soul américaine Muriel Fowler, le spectacle de Jérome Savary « Looking for Chano ».
Etabli aujourd’hui à Paris, Lukmil lance son propre projet : Lukmil Perez Colectivo (LPC), formation qui fusionne le folklore cubain, jazz, funk soul et electro. L’album est enregistré avec ses amis de toujours : le trompettiste Julio Padron (« Irakere », « Afro Cuban All Stars », «Looking for Chano »), le trombone Juan Carlos Marin, le guitariste Norberto Rodriguez, le bassiste Ronald Moran et le pianiste André Sutre.
