The Ensemble has opened for Tito Puente and Poncho Sanchez. And, the Ensemble has been host to such stars as Luis Conte, Orestes Vilato, Alex Acuna, Claudia Lennear, Nancy King, Karla Harris and featured almost the entire Tedeschi Trucks Band during the Ensemble’s Waterfront Blues Festival performance in 2016.
