For 2025, Patrick's new Project is call Patrick Abán And His Buena Vista Social, This new band comes from many years of personal musical ideas and feelings in Patrick's world.
"Many years ago, I was in Quito, Ecuador and heard this group playing in this bar and loved the music they were playing, it was so unique, I just had to know who’s songs were they performing, came back to the US found the group and talked to Juanito and ask him to learn a couple of their songs, people in DC didn’t know the group yet and the latin groups were all stuck on the heavy Salsa feel, I loved the flavor and the history of the group and insisted in learning a few of their songs and include them in our repertoire, some people including myself thought these guys are old but so good, maybe that was the reason musicians in DC were not really interested in learning any of their tunes, after learning a few of their songs and performing them in my shows all of the sudden I have become one of those old guys! The name of the band was The Buena Vista Social Club!
The results have been amazing, nowadays a lot of the Latin bands play a song or 2 from The Buena Vista Social Club, I can honestly say that they have been a big part of my musical career!
Patrick Alban & Noche Latina has been a very good band for me specially during the Madam’s Organ days.
Now I find my self changing a little and wanting to do even more acoustic Cuban tunes and also a few more American Acoustic Rock. I have a lot of requests on some old songs that I only perform once in a while.
After all my favorite artists have always been Cat Stevens, Jim Croce, Jose Feliciano and I want to play a little more of that kind of music gender…
In 2025 I am introducing a new project, with a couple of new musicians and just making it a little different, we will still be able to do our regular Latin sets if required but I want to bring this particular sound with a few more Cuban songs, and some other very cool songs that I have always wanted to learn and perform, so much respect for those guys that I have decide to name this new project “PATRICK ALBAN & HIS BUENA VISTA SOCIAL” Again I feel like I have come all the way around and now I am one of those old guys!
Very excited about 2025, I don’t know how much longer I will be able to share my music with you all, but until then I want to do it like I have always done it, my way.
Thank you for your continued support I can’t wait until you meet, hear and see the new band…"
