Wilmer Sifontes, originally from Caracas, Venezuela, is one of London’s most accomplished, outstanding and prolific percussionists. He has backed up many of Salsa’s biggest stars (Henry Fiol, Adalberto Santiago, Tito Gomes) and played some of the most prestigious festivals (Glastonbury, North Sea, Womad) as well as leading his Conjunto Sabroso. Another great El Swing night is guaranteed.
