The urban Latin flavor in Seattle is championed by Picoso... [they] are not afraid to stretch beyond what is comfortably known as Latin or world music. The vibe is urban and very street, without losing the relationship to the ancestor sound.
- Darek Mazzone
host of 90.3 KEXP's Wo Pop
for Seattle Sound Magazine,
March 2006
Started on the streets of Seattle, Picoso radiates raw energy at shows. Their original music innovates while remaining rooted in the fundamental extemporaneous groove and feeling of The Cachao Descarga Sessions. While many of Picoso's songs could be described as Salsa, Son or Cha cha, the power and spontaneity of Picoso's live performances cannot possibly be encapsulated in those three words.
Since the band's formation in 2004, Picoso has appeared live in Seattle at The Triple Door, Nectar, The Tractor Tavern, Lo-fi, The Seamonster Lounge, The Scarlet Tree, Tost, The Ballroom, Axis, Las Margaritas, The Mirabeau Room, Ethnic Fest 2005 (Tacoma) and The Bite of Seattle. Picoso has also been featured live on KEXP 90.3's Sonarchy Radio, KEXP 90.3's Wo' Pop as well as KBCS 91.3's Latin music show, Sabor.

Thanks for the add! Check out our new demo! Also we are playing Thursday, February 12th with Sirens Sister (members of Vendetta Red!) at the Wild Buffalo in Bellingham! It's going to be huge!
Picoso! Been a while since I said hello, couldn't help but notice you have video footage of THE CONCERT I ATTENDED! Your music does amazing things, such as cause one to make out with random chicks, drink a lot of rum and stumble down the street, forgetting what the hell's going on. Hope all's well.
hey picoso. we want to play a show with you in the new year. this is not idle talk: we are earnest. and it will be a crazy party when it happens. peace!
Wanted to let you know about an upcoming show.. We will be releasing our first Album, THE THREADS, down at the Nectar Lounge in Fremont on December 6th.. Been looking forward to this.. hope to see you there!
-PUBLISH THE QUEST
Hello Picoso! I hope you are all doing wonderful out there on the west coast! I can't seem to find my way back to Seattle, but some day, surely I'll catch a show.
