    LA Weekly | Complete Issue

  • “No matter how many rhythmic or stylistic accents it manages at once, this music breathes organically, with slinky, propulsive beats supporting Conde's simple melodies and pleasantly low-key vocals -- rather than pile up flashy variations on a simple framework like a showboating sonero, he puts his faith in the strength of his songs.”

    Chicago Reader

  • “Cuban sonero and composer Ignacio PiƱeiro founded Sexteto Nacional as Columbia Records 'answer to RCA Victor's popular Sexteto Habanero, later adding a 7th member and so defining the classic septet sound.”
