Fuego Latin Orquesta Hawaii
Grupo Fuego was formed in the fall of 1999. They are very lucky to have a group of musicians that has remained constant over the years and who have given the band its powerful sound. They have come a long way from their humble roots and have grown in popularity along just as Latin Music has grown more popular. Their fan base covers all ages and ethnic groups due to the energy that the band puts forth in its performances.
Grupo Fuego has been part of many Latino and multi-cultural events including performances at La Calle Ocho Festival, Virginia Beach Latin Festival, Latino del Norte Arts' Festival, Cincylatino Festival, Cincy-Cinco Festival, Fiesta Olé, Toledo Latinofest, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for Latino Heritage Day, the Cleveland Music Hall for Brewfest, the Puerto Rican Cultural Festival in Cleveland and Chicago, the Taste of Cleveland Festival, the Columbus Latino Festival, and the Cityfolk Festival in Dayton, among many others.
Grupo Fuego has also shared the stage with many legends of Latin music including Victor Manuelle, Elvis Crespo, Jose Alberto "El Canario", Tito Rojas, Aventura, Monchi y Alexandra, Tito Puente Jr., Ivy Queen, Sonora Carruseles, Fat Joe, and Huey Dunbar. Thanks, in part, to the assistance of these fine and talented people, Grupo Fuego has really been catching the public's ear.
