Ray Obiedo & Mistura Fina

Ray Obiedo & Mistura Fina featuring Sandy Cressman & Jeff Cressman

Mistura Fina is made up of some of the Bay Area’s finest musicians.  With its heavy influence of Brazilian & Afro Cuban rhythms, a traditional West Coast Latin Jazz sound is always at the core of the ensemble. Guitarist/composer, Ray Obiedo, formed this group in 2012 to further explore his love of Brazilian and Latin music. His compositions for the group are drawn from many musical influences, including contemporary Jazz and Funk as well as other music genres.The rhythm section includes some of Obiedo’s mainstays over the past few years, vocalist Sandy Cressman, trombonist Jeff Cressman, pianist Murray Low, bassist Dan Feizsli, drummer Phil Hawkins and Derek Rolando on percussion.

Mistura Fina works with a wonderfully rich array of textures and colors, melding together all of its musical elements for a delightfully distinct Bay Area flavor.
