Private Show: MANOSANTA: Truly captivating CUMBIA TANGO LATIN HIP HOP from these big names in the French and global World Music festival scene - their second visit to Scotland, ending their 2010 French/UK Tour.

Created four years ago by Argentinians Luis Posa, Eddy Tomassi and Pablo Mendez, who live in the beautiful 'Midi' area of the South of France near Avignon.

These 'Tres Hombres' were joined later by drummer Thomas Huet and the most recent additions Joselo Gonzalez on vocals and ukulele and Manu Guerreros on keyboards.

Their songs are basically minimalist; their lyrics follow the "Tangueros" tradition, respecting the influence of composer and lyricist Enrique Santos Discepolo with a rhythm pattern very close to Latin Hip Hop combined with an African tonal quality.
