A beautifully crafted production closer to the big band sounds of the 40’s and 50’s than the harder sounds of NY’s 70’s. Featuring his “Latin Section" band with musicians including David Pattman and Davide Giovanini and also some very special gust such us the legendary House music vocalist, Marc Evans, Jazz saxophonist Pete Wareham and jazz singer-songwriter Jen Kearney


For years Mark Cotgrove, AKA Snowboy has been the most prolific latin band leader in the UK, delivering 16 LPs in a career that has just reached 30 years. This is probably one of the most  ambitions projects by the Englishman but despite the difficulties that recording a project like this in the UK must bring, the result is very impressive. Loving the English sung tunes which give a different dimension and  real global identity to the project.
