REBELLION – Under the Artistic and Musical Direction of Rafael “Beto” Sarmiento has a unique salsa sound that is kind of tough to define, though easy to hear. Basically, both the vocal and instrumental work fall somewhere between standard salsa sonerismo and the lusher, but still feisty arrangements of salsa romantica.  Introducing any of the improvisational elements that give salsa, as a genre, its heat and flavour. Specializing in both smooth, romantic ballads and sensual salsas, the vocals, arrangements, and even the percussion section are incredibly smooth and strong at the same time. The result is fresh and original. The musicianship is consistently solid, you definitely want to hear it again and again.

​

JC’s voice is soaring and luminescent, delivering the electrifying performances that salsa lovers have come to expect from him. With an enviable vocal range and perhaps some of the finest improvisational abilities on the salsa scene today, Janio Coronado has truly earned his reputation as an exceptional sonero.

Joining him is Rafi Narváez, a remarkable Venezuelan singer and high-pitched sonero whose powerful vocal delivery, extraordinary energy, and impressive improvisational skills bring another dimension to this musical masterpiece. Together, these two outstanding voices create an explosive combination of passion, rhythm, and authentic salsa tradition.

Rebellion is, without question, poised to be one of the finest salsa records of 2027, celebrating the true essence of salsa with exceptional vocal talent, musical excellence, and an irresistible Latin spirit.
