CHIA's Dance Party

CHIA’s Dance Party is a New York City-based Quartet/Quintet/Sextet. The band delivers a unique musical experience where infectious danceable grooves mix harmoniously with extensive compositional and improvisational work. The band performs original material inspired by the Colombian rhythmic and melodic traditions, yet explores different genres and compositional approaches. CHIA's Dance Party has a distinct sound as a result of the diverse background of its musicians. Ben Stapp, an exeptional tuba player brings his vast experience in experimental, classical and rock music. Alex Terrier on soprano saxophone delivers the best, virtuosic sounds of modern jazz, and Justin Wood on alto sax and flute adds adventurous and fearless contemporary sounds and concepts. All of these sounds are catalyzed by musical director, Mart�-n Vejarano on Drums. We are also proud to feature the sounds of very special guests such as Rafi Malkiel on Bombardino (Euphonium), Terry Greene II on Trombone and Federico Ochoa Soprano Sax.
