Latin Music NYC

Latin music in NYC is defined by its rhythms. When they took away the drum in the United States, we got the Blues, the root of American popular music.

Latin Jazz, Salsa, Rap, Disco and Punk Rock were created in New York City. House music was created in Chicago by a New Yorker. Reggaeton passed through.

Most Latin music is dance music that expresses family, faith, community, and love. Some NYC Dance parties have live music too. ¡Baila conmigo!
