Bebop with us to the sounds of Afro-Cuban jazz artist Axel Tosca Laugart and (U)nity. Cuban born Axel Tosca Laugart is one of the most dynamic young pianists on the scene. Laugart benefitted from a wide range of musical experiences growing up in Cuba. Laugart also played with the Afro Cuban All Stars, Teresa Garcia Caturla, Sexteto Sendito, Jose Miguel Crego (known as “El Greco”), and a Latin Jazz group called the Bobby Carcases Group, where Laugart says "I learned a lot about the language of music." Laugart was also part of the Hip-Hop scene in Cuba and had the opportunity to play with The Roots while they were in Cuba. He has also worked in the studio with Cuban conductor Miguel Ceruto. Now based in New York, Laugart continues to grow musically. Of his future, he says "my goal is to just keep upgrading my talent and my soul. I love the world."
