Bio
*For booking inquiries please contact umojaorchestra@gmail.com .... "A band that can fill the stage with upwards of 10 people, Umoja is a mix of jazz, Latin, afro-beat, and funk; this, even, is too confining. And with an array of styles, people of all castes and colors flock together as one in a sea of positivity." -Grooveshark.com.... "They play with a stylistic sophistication and playful ease on stage that exceeds their youth and sells out shows..." - REAX Magazine........ ***NOTICE TO TAPERS -- Unless otherwise noted, Umoja Orchestra is VERY MUCH in favor of having our shows taped (audio or video) and uploaded to the web for sharing and free distribution (all we ask is that you send us a copy, we'd love to have it).***.... Umoja Orchestra recording "Abre La Puerta" .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..
