He's also one of New York's top band leaders, with an 11 piece orchestra back home, and a talented and original songwriter with many salsa hits under his belt, including La Noticia and La Cacharra. If that isn't enough, Jimmy is also a true entertainer able to create an energy and vibe on stage which is captivating and always goes down well with dancers.

Jimmy will play at GBSEx with one of Europe's leading salsa bands, Grupo X. Based in London and led by Jonny Enright, they've made a name for themselves with many successful album releases and are the backing musicians of choice for visiting salsa musicians. Jimmy and Grupo X last played in the UK in 2008 in an award-winning performance at Salsology in Manchester. They appear at GBSEx III on Sunday night after the shows... Awesome.
