Press Reviews
"[Cuco Reyes Y Su Orquesta Vibracion]has cut a path of popularity playing a wide range of Latin styles in covers and originals in Latin and Anglo communities alike. Their versatility has made them in demand in clubs... and festivals in the Southeast. With that, Reyes is content: "We do something good if people are happy with our music.""
