RBC Salsa Orchestra is the new name for the Afro-Cuban Jazz Orchestra, as the repertoire has expanded to cover Latin music from all over the region, from Colombia and Venezuela to Puerto Rico and New York.
David Pattman started as a jazz musician playing drums and percussion with Django Bates, Tim Whitehead, Chucho Merchan’s Macondo, Loose Tubes, and Dudu Pukwana. He then developed an interest in Latin music which led to being a founder member of British Salsa bands Valdez, El Sonido De Londres, La Clave and Roberto Pla’s Latin Ensemble. From 1988-1990 he spent time in the US in New York and Miami, working with Daniel Santos, Orlando Contreras and La Sensacion with El Niño Jesus and Eddie Guagua Rivera.
