El Laberinto del Coco

Formed in 2017 under the visionary leadership of prolific percussionist and composer, Hector
“Coco” Barez, El Laberinto del Coco has evolved into a trailblazing
force in the world of Puerto Rican bomba fusion. Barez is an educator, musical
ambassador, in-demand session musician and solo artist, whose extensive career
includes a decade playing with the internationally influential alternative
hip-hop combo, Calle 13, and recording with artists such as Shakira, Alejandro
Sanz, Maná, Don Omar, Bayanga, Cultura Profética, amongst others. With a
14-piece line-up, El Laberinto del Coco’s massively irresistible sound
seamlessly blends traditional Afro-Puerto Rican beats with contemporary
influences, creating a heady concoction which over the last two years has been lighting
up stages outside of Puerto Rico, including the DC Afro-Latino Music Fest, and
the Millennium Park Summer Concert Series in Chicago.
