Ahi-Nama Quintet The Rubber City's own salsa, timba, and Latin jazz sensation brings the quintet version of their high-energy show back to BLU! Featuring Alex Hoyt, Tim Coyne, Matthew DeRubertis, Clay Chabola & Dan Kshywonis.
Ahi-Nama was started by Alex Hoyt (pianist, arranger, and band leader). Alex grew up in Northeast Ohio, having his talents cultivated by some of the area’s finest jazz musicians. He took an interest in Latin music in his high school years. This interest eventually led to Alex spending ten years living in Miami where he fully immersed himself in many varieties of Latin and Afro-Cuban music. He has performed with Sammy Figueroa, Tony Succar, Andy Montañez, Tito Allen, and Luisito Carrion to name a few. Alex eventually came back to Akron, Ohio with the intent of bringing this invigorating music back up north where it is much more needed!
Featuring Alex Hoyt (piano), Tim Coyne (trumpet), Clay Chabola (congas, percussion), Dan Kshywonis (drumset, percussion) and Matthew DeRubertis (electric bass).
Join us for a groove-heavy, energizing mix of salsa, Cuba & Caribbean timba, Latin Jazz and more – get your tickets today!
