Mixcla + 1 is led by composer, pianist, and singer Zahili Gonzalez Zamora (Cuba), and features Gerson Lazo-Quiroga (Chile) on bass, Takafumi Nikaido (Japan) on percussion, and Paul Sanchez (Ecuador) on trumpet. "Mixcla" is a play on words between mezcla (Spanish for mixture) and mix -- a play on sounds, from the mountains of Chile and Ecuador, the traditions of Japan, and the artistic fires of Cuba.  Mixcla +1 melds these influences to create a truly unique Latin jazz experience.
