Pimienta

Pimienta perform a spicy blend of Latin jazz that packs a rhythmic punch! For over a decade, Karen Rauh (piano), Mark Fraser (bass), and Allyson Rogers (drums) have been digging deep into the Latin jazz repertoire, pulling out overlooked gems, and adding their own flavour to Cuban and Brazilian classics. The seasoned players in this Ottawa-based group are regulars at local festivals and thrilled to add saxophonist and multi-instrumentalist Mike Tremblay to the line-up. The quartet’s high-energy repertoire, innovative arrangements, and infectious grooves have been winning Pimienta rave reviews and getting audiences out of their seats.
