“López-Nussa’s single-note grace is akin to Herbie Hancock’s, and his two-fisted attacks are as joyous as Chick Corea’s” (Downbeat Magazine)
Cuban-born pianist and composer Harold López-Nussa began an exciting new chapter with his Blue Note debut of Timba a la Americana, a vibrant album teeming with joy and pathos that was inspired by the pianist’s decision to leave his Cuban homeland and begin a new life in France. Timba a la Americana unveils a brand-new sound across 10 dynamic original compositions performed by a tight-knit band, featuring harmonica virtuoso Grégoire Maret, Luques Curtis on bass, and Harold’s brother Ruy Adrián López-Nussa on drums. This project captures the essence of Afro-Cuban rhythms in a contemporary context.
Growing up in a musical family, the pianist graduated from Havana’s Instituto Superior de Artes and toured early on with the singer Omara Portuondo. He made his debut as a leader in 2007 with Canciones and continued to release a string of acclaimed Latin jazz projects under his own name and participated in collaborative all-star assemblages like Ninety Miles with Stefon Harris, David Sanchez and Christian Scott in 2010.
