What people are saying about Tito Puente Jr:

"The new Performing Arts Center came to life Sunday with the warm Latin beats of Tito Puente Jr. who helped break-in the $45 million venue and show off exactly what it was built to do; let the audience feel the music."

“Did you feel that?” asked Puente after playing his first mambo beats to a crowd of about 600 people. “This place is spectacular, and we are very thankful for the opportunity to help inaugurate it.”

"For about an hour-and-a-half, Puente played a wide array of his late father’s legendary hits including, “Oye Como Va” and “Ran Kan Kan,” whose Afro-Latin beats reverberated off the wood-paneled walls bringing the audience to its feet.
He said it was wonderful that they chose Puente Jr. to break-in the brand new venue... he said he loved everything about the performance, from the sound to the lights, to the dancers."

The comparison is inevitable. How could it be otherwise? Tito Puente Jr. carries his father with him – imprinted on his physical being and locked in his soul. It’s in his looks, his joy, and his music.

Tito, Jr. is on a passionate mission. The younger Puente is determined to nurture the musical legacy left by his father and his 10,000 musical arrangements. He refuses to let his father become a distant memory. “He was just too vibrant, too exciting. There was magic in the music my father made. It made people happy all over the world.”

He has found captive audiences who echo his passion. Crowds lured to a venue by the father are returning to see the son -- and to once again participate in the high voltage celebration that takes place on stage.

Tito Puente, Jr. has become an audience favorite in casinos, performing arts centers, symphony halls and jazz festivals worldwide, performing more than 300 shows over the past 5 years.

Albums include: “In My Father’s Shoes” which was spun into a BET Jazz television special of the same name, and "Got Mambo?" with guest artist Bobby Cruz plus Hansel & Raul.

Symphony appearances include Dallas, San Antonio, Colorado, South Bend, Palm Desert Symphony and performances with the National Symphony Orchestra conducted by the late Marvin Hamlisch. 

He was seen in a tribute to his father’s music on NBC’s two hour special--“The Apollo at 70: A Hot Night in Harlem.” He has also appeared on the ABC soap opera hit “One Life to Live” in performance with his big band.

Tito was also the leading character in the Lions Gate Entertainment major motion picture, "Señorita Justice" which starred Eva Longoria and Yancy Mendia.

Furthermore, Puente Jr. was honored as well as being a presenter at the 1st New England Salsa Music Awards held in October 2015.

Tito Jr. reveres the magnificent, lasting impact his father had on our musical lives. “People who don’t know anything about Latin music know my father and people always, always smile when they say my father’s name,” he confides. “That is a very special gift I have been given.”

Agent Mark Sonder admits, "When listening to Tito Puente, Jr. your feet just automatically move.  There is nothing you can do to stop the!"

Tito Puente Jr. and his Orchestra are 12 fine musicians on stage.  His Latin Jazz Ensemble are 7 fine musicians on stage.  Either combination, you will have a wonderful event!
