Michael Spiro<\/a> is a ten-time Grammy nominee, and has produced seminal recordings in the Latin Music genre.<\/strong> His performing and recording credits cover an array of internationally known artists: from such pop artists as David Byrne, Carlos Santana, and Charlie Watts, to Latin music icons Eddie Palmieri, Israel Lopez (Cachao), and Richard Egues.<\/span><\/p>\n

In this episode, I discuss with\u00a0<\/span>Mike\u00a0<\/span>about the roots of Rumba, the role of drums in spiritual traditions such as Cuban Santer\u00eda, the path he traveled to become first a conga player and then a priest in that tradition, and the fascinating stories behind the formation of emblematic groups like Los Mu\u00f1equitos de Matanzas and Afro-Cuba de Matanzas.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
