Ilú (CU)
Winners of Jazz Juniors 2022

The name “Ilú” is inspired by a Yoruba word that means land, city, where nothing exists without music. The trio’s goal is to explore new musical fields inside the traditional standards of afro-cuban music. Three Cuban musicians – coming from different backgrounds, but with a common goal – gathered to create a musical project that explores and experiments. They came up with a unique format without harmonic instruments but with an emphasis on the rhythm that is a foundation of their musical culture, along with melodies that represent chants of ancestors at their profane and spiritual celebrations. Ilú is a celebration of their roots, wrapped up in a modern form.
