CRUZAO RETURNS TO HAVANA - DEC 2005!
In Dec 2004 - Nick Ali & CRUZAO was invited to represent Canada

In previous years CRUZAO has dazzled international audiences with their fiery
sounds, leading to last year's participation in the Havana Jazz Festival as a headlining artist.
 Brownman would subsequently asked by Chucho Valdes himself to
perform with the legendary IRAKERE as a special guest soloist.  Footage from this ground-breaking performance will be
up on brownman.com soon.  A proud moment for Canada.
