Los Van Van [Havana Cultura]

For the past four decades Los Van Van have been showing the world that Cuban music is alive and well and very, very danceable. With the crowd response on their most recent US tour (Los Angeles, New York, Miami...) as fresh evidence, that mission has been a resounding success. But after closer inspection – specifically, after sitting down for a rare interview in Havana where it all began – you understand that there’s a lot more to Los Van Van than meets the dancefloor.
