Ninety Miles

Ninety miles is the distance separating the Florida Keys from Cuba, a distance wide enough to keep people apart, but not their music or culture. And Ninety Miles is also the name of vibraphonist Stefon Harris’ recent release. The unique collection of songs was recorded in Havana, Cuba, with local Cuban musicians making it a true Cuban American musical collaboration that defies political borders. Harris, along with Nicholas Payton, David Sanchez, Edward Simon, Luques Curtis, Henry Cole and Maracio Herera, returns to Segerstrom Center to give jazz lovers a live taste of this exciting sound.
