New Regency Orchestra

New Regency Orchestra has created a storm with its mighty twelve-piece horn section, lock-tight five-piece rhythm section and the NRO dancers bringing new energy and arrangements to the golden age of latin jazz and salsa.

Inspired by New York’s melding of Jazz and Latin from the 50s to the 70s, when jazz luminaries Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker collided with the Cuban roots of Chano Pozo and Machito, NRO add a contemporary London spin with the city’s best Latin Music and Jazz talent driving each other to greater heights.

‘Remember New Regency Orchestra. See how they grow!’ - Gilles Peterson BBC 6 Music.

‘The group’s unique take on Latin jazz combines fiendishly complex polyrhythms with blasting horn fanfares and an impeccable sense of groove.’ - The Guardian.

‘Could convert any 90s hip-hop head into a salsa fan.’ - Songlines.
