Alex Cuba @ Rumba (Event Over)

With his afro, good looks and penchant for bell bottoms, you might think Alex Cuba is the second coming of Lenny Kravitz. But this Cuban-Canadian guitarist and vocalist combines the sounds of his native land with jazz, R&B and pop-rock to create his own style of Latin American music. And even though he sings in Spanish, his soulful croon and unique six-string skills surpass language barriers.
