The crowd surrounding the back porch stage at the House of Blues is sweaty and ready. They have been warmed up from Chico Trujillo and they want to keep dancing. The Chicago House of Blues has transformed into a Latin American music bar from the heart of downtown Miami. The stage lights match the feeling of Grupo Fantasma with infatuation and love. Grupo Fantasma approaches the stage cool and confident. They aren’t the kind of guys that feel the need to project their voice when they’re able to have their instruments do the talking for them.
This band consists of 10 different members. The one thing, among many, that set this band far above other multi-member bands is that every member does more than just play their chosen instrument. Vocalists Kino Rodriguez and Jose Galeano are able to play every percussion instrument while singing with a voice that will attract the attention of any woman. They are able to sing while keeping a rhythm that matches their hands and hips perfectly. Rodriguez and Galeano are able to keep the crowd entertained and happy. Along with Rodriguez and Galeano, guitarists Beto Martinez and Adrian Quesada play to the way of how a couple dances the tango, flowing and filled with natural beauty.
Grupo Fantasma’s performance brings enthusiasm and passion. Their show will make you dance, even if you don’t know how. Grupo Fantasma clearly enjoys their music and has the best advertisement money can buy—a great product.
