Sin Miedo possesses it's own unique sound! Drop by one of our shows and experience it for yourself.
Sin Miedo is Spanish for fearless, and its also the name of one of the best Salsa bands in Washington. Led by French pianist Didier Prossaird, the name sums up the band leaders attitude toward music. (Washington post-10/12/01-EricBrace)
Sin Miedo is a truly international group that makes the Afro-Cuban rhythms of Salsa and Mambo jump into your bloodstream and move your hips around (Washington Flyer-10/02)
The repertoire includes the Classic salsa hits from the 70s to today as well as Chacha Bolero and original music with a French twist. Because of its versatility, the band can switch from dance music to listening music with a large repertoire of Latin-Jazz.
Weekly schedule: Wednesdays at Bossa lounge: Didier Prossaird, Alfredo Mojica, and Leonardo Lucini are playing your favorite Latin tunes. We start at 9:30 PM (2463 18th street NW- 202-667-0088).www.bossaproject.com
Saturdays at Havana Grill. Free dance class at 9 pm. Located at 5951 Stevenson Avenue in Alexandria VA, 22304 (behind landmark mall, easy access from 395).

I was very proud to play in Baltimore, in front of friends and family, with Sin Miedo. This band has a great swing, is super tight, and everybody is playing and singing their butt off!
I seriously enjoy every chance I get to play with the band. Thanks for having me. Looking forward to the next time.
