Adonis Puentes with renowned guest Valentin Puentes - Aug. 29, 2024

Juno & Grammy Nominated vocalist, Adonis Puentes, will be joined by special guest, Valentin Puentes, Adonis' father and renowned guitarist. This will be a singular show, not to be missed. Adonis will also be joined by a diverse jazz band, featuring Brent Jarvis (piano), Scott White (bass), Brooke Maxwell (Tenor Sax), and Nicholas Marquez (percussion).

Adonis Puentes, born into an atmosphere charged with Cuban sounds, was drawn to music at a young age, by his father’s guitar playing and growing up in a house across the street from his hometown of Artemisa’s Cultural Centre. At age 6 Adonis joined a Children’s Guitar Ensemble formed by his father, Valentin, and by the time he was 14 he was singing and writing his own music. At 21 Adonis became a finalist in a national televised singing competition and his notoriety began to soar. In 1998 Adonis moved to Canada where he continues to compose, sing and perform internationally, staying true to his Cuban Roots with contemporary influences. Adonis is an award winning vocalist and artist proud to present his music and culture to the world.
