About me
I’m Jorge García, an argentine percussionist.
I currently play in various bands across genres. Soneros Social Club (salsa), Manana (Latin jazz), Latin Blue Invitation, Edo Bumba (Africana), Paulo Costas (bossa nova), among others. I also play with DJs and play live percussion at parties.
I also teach percussion at Mundele Percussion, a drum ensamble.
My music is influenced by Latin American rhythms and Argentine folk music.
I’ve studied with some of the greatest percussionists of our time and attended music courses both in Argentina and in Sweden, where I studied a bachelor in world music at the Academy of Music and Drama (university of Gothenburg) in Gothenburg, where I’ve been living for the past 15 years.
Solo set
I’m a versatile multi-percussionist. My charisma, flexibility and musicality make for an effective and powerful combination when collaborating with others. I perform with various bands and groups across different genres, and I also share stage with DJs, playing and energizing the night with percussion.
Percussion Classes
Mundele is a percussion ensemble where drums take center stage. In our courses, we explore a variety of rhythms from the Caribbean and Latin America.
By playing different rhythms, students will learn, discover, create, and have fun with percussion. No experience is necessary, and we have instruments for everyone.
Latin Jazz
Manana is a Latin jazz quintet based in Gothenburg, featuring some of the city’s top jazz musicians.
Our goal is to create an atmosphere of musical reciprocity, blending cultures, genres, and rhythms to further expand the Latin jazz scene in Gothenburg!
