“Orquesta SON 9: Canta Gilberto Velez Jr” is the official name of this ten-piece orchestra, nine musicians plus one. The band is new, but the roster of this band is very familiar. Gilberto Velez has teamed up with local musicians to form a new and exciting concept. Their repertoire is refreshingly new and classic!

Grand Debut!
Friday February 6th, 2009
Fire N Ice Salsa Fridays.

Gilberto Velez Jr was featured last year at the New York International Salsa Congress as the lead singer on Saturday night! So this band is new but not amateur.

DJ Dany Joshua, DJ Leonard, the drinks specials, the low cover, and the hardwood dance floor will still be in effect that night! Any questions, please contact Dany Joshua.

For table reservations or VIP seating contact Fire N Ice directly at 732.417.1999 (limited).

Scarlet Mambo has made a big push to become an elite disc jockey service in the New York and New Jersey Salsa scenes. Having a dancer’s perspective, the Scarlet Mambo DJ’s strive to play the best music for Salsa dancers. In fact, in a perfect world, DJ Dany J and DJ Leonard would exclusively play Salsa exclusively for dancers only, 100% of the time! (redundancy intended)

With this in mind, Scarlet Mambo is “on tour” in New York and New Jersey, making appearances at Salsa socials of some of the most prestigious Salsa personalities. Last week, on January 3rd, 2009, the Scarlet Mambo DJ’s made an appearance at Yesenia’s Dance Factory Salsa Social.

On Saturday, January 17th, 2009, Scarlet Mambo is scheduled to spin music at “The House of Dance Salsa Social”, hosted by Griselle Ponce.

In New York, DJ Dany J will be playing at Sabor Tuesdays at Iguana every Tuesday for the the month January (2009). DJ Dany J plays a long set that is followed by DJ Antonio La Conga.

This is a rough schedule of DJ gigs for Scarlet Mambo for January:

- Tue, Jan 13th @ Sabor Tuesdays at Iguanas
- Thu, Jan 15th @ Scarlet Salsa Thursdays at 360 Lounge
- Fri, Jan 16th @ Fire N Ice Salsa Fridays
- Sat, Jan 17th @ The House of Dance Salsa Social (hosted by Griselle Ponce)
- Tue, Jan 20th @ Sabor Tuesdays
- Thu, Jan 22nd @ Scarlet Salsa Thursdays at 360 Lounge
- Fri, Jan 23rd @ Fire N Ice Salsa Fridays
- Tue, Jan 27th @ Sabor Tuesdays
- Thu, Jan 29th @ Scarlet Salsa Thursdays at 360 Lounge
- Fri, Jan 30th @ Fire N Ice Salsa Fridays

Apparently a handful of people were confused a little. Let’s clarify. After a two-week hiatus due to Christmas and the New Year falling on Thursdays, Scarlet Salsa Thursdays at 360 Lounge are back this week. In addition, Fire N Ice Salsa Fridays are very much in effect. When in doubt, please visit the “Upcoming Events” tab at the top of this page to get the latest information about specific dates.
