About La Londinense Orchestra, homenaje a la salsa
La Londinense Orchestra is a new project uniting 13 London-based musicians with roots across Latin America, representing Cuba, Colombia, Peru, Venezuela, Mexico and more.
Collectively, they bring decades of salsa experience and have shared the stage with internationally renowned artists across the global salsa scene.
Expect a showcase of the evolution of salsa over the past 60 years and an incredible performance that spans from Cuban Son to the salsa of the Fania All Stars, Willie Colón, and El Gran Combo de Puerto Rico, Sonora Ponceña, Ismael Rivera, Hector Lavoe, and many more.
If that’s not enough, an optional beginner dance class will be given at the start of the evening to give you some salsa moves that will keep you moving all night long.

About O2 Academy Oxford
The Edwardian building on Cowley Road has been hosting live music for decades. But prior to being a music venue, it was a Cooperative party hall. It was originally known as The Venue and then the much-respected Zodiac, both of which paved the way for O2 Academy Oxford, which officially launched in September 2007, with performances from New Young Pony Club, The Magic Numbers and Young Knives.
Since then, the O2 Academy Oxford has established itself as one of the city’s greatest venues for live music and club nights, with some of the best gigs to date coming from Ed Sheeran, Foals, Stereophonics, Ozzy Osbourne, Babyshambles, Hozier and Royal Blood.
