PUSH presents Saturday 8th March 2008 THE CUBAN BROTHERS (MTV-MANUMISSION-BESTIVAL) TRISTAN DA CUHNA (BACK TO BASICS-20:20 VISION) BEN FORBES (PLASTIC HIP) STE GUTHRIE (PUSH-FUTURE) About The Cuban Brothers The Cuban Brothers are unique. Born of the loins of seventies Havana, nurtured on a diet of soulful, sexy tunes and inspired by Cuban historical fact and mythology – their fresh approach to live entertainment whips up a frenzy at every gig. Their legendary performance combines music, which evolves with every show, riotous comedy, both physical and observational, and sensational dancing - consequently the energy at every show is incredible. They’ve recently put together a full live band also which add a further dimension to their show. The Cuban Brothers: A history Taking it right back, The Cuban Brothers launched by storming UK club land with their passionate attitude towards partying and performing. Their unique flavour made nights out tasty again and their rise to fame has been meteoric. From stealing the main stage at Manumission to hosting the NME Awards The Cuban Brothers soon became the most desirable act to book for the coolest live events. MTV were soon hot on their trail and in 2002 The Cuban Brothers started presenting music specials including festival coverage of Homelands and Creamfields, MTV in Ibiza and the MTV Music Awards. There’s no doubt The Cuban Brothers are the hardest working boys in entertainment. When they’re not performing live all over the world, they’re in the studio producing their new album, developing new characters or filming for their eagerly anticipated T.V series. Whatever incarnation you experience it’s evident that their musical influences span many styles and generations. Their comic conjecture engages the audience with anecdotes from their experiences from all over the world so their global appeal is second to none. Crowds from London to New York, Havana to Ibiza, Cannes to Rome have grooved to their flow and applauded to their contagious repartee. There is no doubt their unique mix transcends all boundaries – a universal flavour indeed.
